The Elephant and Piggie books are as popular as they are for a good reason。 Not only are the characters expressive, funny, and original, but the stories themselves are genius while being simplistic。 I love the surprise endings that give you a hint of a good message like “Having fun is most important” and “There is a solution for everything,” but the message does not bombard you or take over the fun of the story。 The simple, bubble language text with expressive character drawings makes it perfect The Elephant and Piggie books are as popular as they are for a good reason。 Not only are the characters expressive, funny, and original, but the stories themselves are genius while being simplistic。 I love the surprise endings that give you a hint of a good message like “Having fun is most important” and “There is a solution for everything,” but the message does not bombard you or take over the fun of the story。 The simple, bubble language text with expressive character drawings makes it perfect for emerging readers ages 4-6。 My favorites in this collection are “Can I Play Too?” and “I Really Like Slop!” “Let’s Go For a Drive” was really fun too。 Great collection! 。。。more

I love love love these books and having the collection lets my little guy feel like he’s reading a chapter book like his big brother。 I love that Elephant (Gerald) and Piggie each have colored speech bubbles so that my boys can take turns reading the characters and practicing their reading aloud。 It is perfect for learning inflection too。 Definitely a favorite。

We cannot get enough of Gerald and Piggie in our household。 When Amazon had this collection (all 3 volumes) on sale, I bought all of them。 There are 5 or 6 stories in each “Biggie” and we easily fly through one full biggie book in one sitting。 I love how simple and surprising these stories are。 They are also great for emerging readers because of the large letters, and limited words on each page。

Sam

Equally enjoyable for both the adult reading the stories and the child listening to them, like a clever Disney movie。 Mo is a genius。 Excellent holiday gift!

Elephant and Piggie books are ideal for beginning readers! This one is getting a lot of mileage at our house。

Roberta

Read this book with my son。 A collection of five Elephant and Piggie adventures。 I’d never read from this collection。 Pretty good, although I think we both prefer the stories on the pigeon more。

Cheryl

Sometimes I just need a big heaping dose of delight。 Thank you, friend Mo, for helping libraries to replace your loved-to-pieces individual books with these omnibuses。

Joyful。 Collection。 Easy readers。Oh what a joy are Elephant and Piggie。 Five books in one, guaranteed to make anyone smile and wish for more。Containing minimal illustrations and text, this book will delight early readers。 The characters expressions and body language tell a great story with lots of laughter and friendship。Just joyful。

We have read the whole book multi times, so figured it was fair to have it go towards my reading goal 😂

When I was reading the book, I was laughing extremely hard, especially when I was reading the book, "Can I Play Too?"。 If you want a good laugh, then this is the book for you!

My son is a huge fan of Elephant and Piggie books。 This anthology is perfect for him because it was four (or five - can't remember) stories that he can read over and over to his heart's content。 The anthology was cheaper than buying the books individually too。 My son is a huge fan of Elephant and Piggie books。 This anthology is perfect for him because it was four (or five - can't remember) stories that he can read over and over to his heart's content。 The anthology was cheaper than buying the books individually too。 。。。more

This is a fantastic collection of stories that beginning readers can discuss with the adults in their life。 Hoghly recommended。

Renee

My kid and I love these stories! We laugh out loud。 The artwork is great, and I love the good messages。

Priya

BEST BOOK EVER。 Feels like reading a big book but full of fun piggie and gerald stories。 Love the style and illustrations。 Simple and fun

Brady

Brady LOVES the humor in these books!!

Amelia B

This is a favorite。 The way the speech bubbles are written give so much inflection, emotion, and detail - but they still feel so simple。 It’s impressive。 These stories are funny, sweet, and we never get tired of them!

Em

We borrowed the entire Elephant and Piggy collection from the library and read them multiple times。 This collection is an amazing value and the stories are humorous and fun to read with the kids。

Carly

Love, love, love these books! My kindergarteners love them too!

I am so glad I decided that in my 41 remaining picture books, beginning readers and graphic novels to read for the year I decided to try Elephant and Piggie。 They are great and I loved this compilation of five Elephant and Piggie books。 They are simple and cute and perfect for kids just learning to read while still having really subtle messages in it。

Grace Ferraro

I like that book because I picked one book at Walmart and there are actually 5 books inside。

Elizabeth

So cute with lovely messages!

This was our first time with Elephant and Piggie books。 There are 5 books included in this biggie volume and my 5 yo loves them! She feels good about being able to read them herself and I enjoy that the illustrations are sparse and minimalistic, leaving lots of room for imagination and discussion。 We both enjoy how expressively the facial feelings and body language are portrayed。 It makes it super easy to model and explore tone and voice inflection when reading, thus creating very fun read aloud This was our first time with Elephant and Piggie books。 There are 5 books included in this biggie volume and my 5 yo loves them!

I’ve read all 5 of these stories numerous times to my 4 year old。 He loves them all。 The fact that I enjoy reading them still speaks volumes to the quality of story by Mo Willems。
