Description

The three little pigs from Pigs In A Blanket are back in this quirky yet appealing board book about persevering despite the mishaps, bumps, and thwarted attempts that may befall the most well-intentioned pig (or kid). Young readers will squeal with delight as they follow the pigs through a series of relatable and over-the-top 'oopsies' that ultimately land on a toddler-appropriate takeaway: Pigs in a pickle know what to do. They try again - they carry through! No matter what, they give their best shot. Sometimes it works . . . and sometimes it does not!
