Charming and funny

Kind of old (which I realize is a relative term), kind of weird, and just kind of great. I love this book. I have loved it since the first time I read it to my oldest son. Like I said, it's weird. It's about a pig named Pig Pig who refuses to grow up. And yet it's charming and funny and victorious. At least I think so. I will never get rid of my copy. First published in 1980.

Pig Pig Surprises Everyone---Especially Himself

Growing Pigs

It was a very funny book. The pictures were funny. Kindergarten kids will love it!

Great fun for parents and children

Pig Pig Grows Up is an entertaining book for not only the child, but also entertaining to the reader if book is read to child. Cartoons are cute and humorous. I have never read the other Pig Pig books, but I strongly recommend Pig Pig Grows Up.

One of my childhood favorites!

This is a great little book! It's about a pig who doesn't want to grow up. He insists on eating baby food and sleeping in his old crib. His poor mother is at her wits' end. Then he gets a chance to prove that he is growing up, and he decides he will grow up after all... I loved this book when I was little!
