Soothing rhymes and fun illustrations

There is not much of a story to this book. It asks repeatedly how big a pig is. Nevertheless, the nice rhyming combined with the bright pictures, made of felt, make it captivating to young readers.

cute as a button!!!

This book is so fantastic! Not only does it teach farm animals and opposites but you can count flowers or bugs, learn colors, tell stories about what the animals are doing, and so much more. My two-year-old *loves* this book and always laughs when we get to the end. I love the cute pictures (the illustrator uses felt cutouts instead of drawings) and how much fun we have following the pig around. You won't be sorry if you buy it--it's a great book.

One of our favorites

My daughter loves this book and asks for it again and again. She loves all the little bugs illustrated with incredibly clever sewing techniques. I love looking at the illustrations and marvelling at the things one can do with pinking shears and rick-rack.

Adorable, colorful book

This is beautifully illustrated with felt, thread and beads. The pictures are simple, brightly colored and just so cute! The story is a rhyming one and easy to read, easy for the child to understand.

Wonderful - the best I've found

This book is great to read, to look at, and to recite. Just a superb children's book - the best I've found. Our one-year-old loves it.
