Elephant and Piggie are fantastic!! submitted by VickyB77 on June 22, 2013, 11:16pm My son LOVES the Elephant and Piggie series, so much that he asked for elephant and piggie stuffed animals for Christmas.

Sweet story with silly fun submitted by KOH on June 17, 2018, 11:23am Elephant and Piggie are back with another fun scene in their friendship. The drawings are simple but masterfully convey such heartwarming emotion! You'll laugh, and you'll say "aww" at the end. Great story!

The Best submitted by hart on June 15, 2019, 6:48am Mo Willems is the best! His stories are captivating for young readers and entices them to want to read more! This book is especially funny, but has great lessons in sharing and caring.

Elephant and piggie submitted by avrogers1 on July 12, 2019, 1:31pm This is a really cute storybook series for young readers. The illustrations are very simpl, but still cute. This book has them learning about inclusion and being a good friend.

Five stars! submitted by ben on July 13, 2019, 10:00am It was really, really, really, REALLY funny because when Gerald and Piggie came up with the idea to get more balls to give the snake to catch, he got bounced so many times that he almost got knocked out.

Fun submitted by kathscot on July 14, 2019, 4:44pm Great easy to read. Also great for the "differently-abled" - they find a way to play catch with the handless snake.

Good book submitted by Kanchan21 on July 16, 2019, 7:08am Justlike all other Mo Willems books thisone is simple , easy to read for young readers and nice way to show inclusiveness to kids.

Funny submitted by TLW1998 on July 28, 2019, 6:33pm This one is funny because a snake can’t play catch.

Great Series submitted by gwenenelson on August 5, 2019, 3:47pm Take turns reading! Who will be Gerald and who will be Piggy?

Yay! Mo willems/ Elephant and piggy submitted by rummella on August 16, 2019, 9:25am All E&P books are funny but I like this one bc the silly problem solving to allow the snake to play is a fun twist.
