This enchanting series of books — by Don’t Let the Pigeon Drive the Bus! author Mo Willems — invites readers to join the hilarious adventures of Gerald and Piggie, an elephant and a pig who are best friends facing life’s many challenges together. Whether they are tackling deep moral conundrums (Should I Share My Ice Cream?), figuring out how to cope when plans go awry (Let’s Go For a Drive!), getting outside their comfort zones (I Really Like Slop!), or finding the courage to be honest when it’s hard (Listen to My Trumpet!), these two buddies will captivate and encourage your young reader. Willems delivers brilliant story-telling through his pithy dialogue and wonderfully simple but expressive illustrations, and because these books are entirely dialogue (most with only two characters), they are perfect for partner reading your little one.
