Get ready for a herd of hilarious swine in this uniquely funny collection of thirty eight original limericks. Arnold Lobel introduces you to a wonderfully eccentric cast of pigs from all walks of life. You will meet an old pig from Schenectady, a brave pig from upstate, and plenty of other muddy, messy, and mischievous characters. Every short, bouncy poem tells a complete and silly story about these unforgettable farm animals. The clever wordplay and rhythmic verses are incredibly fun to read aloud, making you giggle with every turning page. It is a beautifully illustrated tribute to the wonderful world of nonsense poetry and the charming, clumsy nature of everyone's favorite barnyard friends.
