Piggie and Elephant

When it comes to the cliche a picture says a thousand words, nothing could come closer than the artistry of Mo Willems.   Our first exposure to his work was I Love My New Toy! The facial expressions drew us in and we read it over and over, laughed through the whole thing!  The other favorite of mine is when Piggie is determined to fly.  The characters are polar opposite best friends Gerald, I think his worrisome ways are a take off of my husband.  And I, the spontaneous and rather reckless Piggie, find adventure and mischief around every corner.  It's a great first reader book with few words or distraction.  Find your favorite and let me know what it is... so I can read it.
