Pig the Fibber by Aaron Blabey - ADVISABLE

Pig the Fibber by Aaron Blabey. PICTURE BOOK. Scholastic Press (Scholastic), AUGUST 2018. $15. 9781338291766

EL (K-3) - ADVISABLE

Pig the Pug is so grumpy that it is impossible not to love him.  In this book, Pig lies and blames his friend Trevor on the mistakes Pig himself makes. In an effort to take the extra treats for himself, he lies to get Trevor out of the house, and when he goes after the treats, a bowling ball falls on his head. 

I love the cadence and rhyming of the text, which make it a very fun read aloud. Kids will connect with Pig’s naughty behavior and the humorous outcome of that behavior.
