Summary: Here’s
a Happy Pig is an interactive board book about animals. The book has holes in it to allow the reader
to wiggle their fingers and almost make the animals come to life. The book introduces children to different
kinds of animals and allows the person reading to them to bring the book to
life.
Evaluation:
Here’s a Happy Pig is a fun, quick children’s book that allows parents to
use their fingers to add movements to the animals inside. Young children would be very entertained by
the fingers poking through the book that add an element of silliness to
it. It is entertaining while also educating
children about what different animals look like.
Amanda, I like how this book involves the children to use their fingers and hands as they are going through the book. When books have a sense of humor in them, it makes the students want to read more!
