Kids' favorite submitted by mcmahon09 on July 15, 2012, 7:29pm This is a favorite book in our family and has been given many times for gifts - always to rave reviews!

Love it! submitted by marielle on August 7, 2012, 11:25am My 2.5 month old son got this book as a gift when he was born. He's too young to understand words yet, but he likes looking at the book, and I like reading it to him!

Anticlimatic submitted by Jan Wolter on July 18, 2013, 12:18pm The first part of this book, with the three singing pigs saying "La La La" is brilliant. But then, like a child saying "Daddy! Read it right!", it rejects the fantastic, the poor pigs are consigned to just saying "Oink" all day and night, and for the rest of the book we have nothing but ordinary animals making ordinary sounds. It's almost depressing.

Oh, who am I kidding? It's a Boynton book. It's brilliant and the kids love it.

One of the first books she likes submitted by espeelmo on June 28, 2014, 1:02pm I agree that it's a bit disappointing to the adult reader to have the pigs say "oink," but my daughter loves all the animal noises. It's one of the first books she'd let me read her.

A family favorite submitted by Zekicmom on August 4, 2014, 4:50pm This a cute, silly story filled with animal sounds and adorable illustrations. My kids are older now, but I think I still know this book by heart. "A cow says 'moo,' a sheep says 'baa,' three singing pigs say 'la la la'........"

Singing pigs submitted by mtrax on August 12, 2014, 7:20am You have to love a book that has pigs singing and dancing.

Animal sounds submitted by andrewjmac on August 16, 2014, 10:00pm Seem to be the most important thing for a child to learn. I'm not sure why. But Boynton, as always, keeps it fun by throwing in a few singing pigs and some rhinos. But I can never get my son to say anything when we get to the end!

Favorite Boyton! submitted by lpettie on July 18, 2016, 12:23pm We love Sandra Boyton. We need a high page turn rate for our active baby and this book is perfect. Plus we can easily keep the beat.

kids love it submitted by VanCancue on June 22, 2018, 1:09pm The book seems simple to us as parents but the kids love it. They seem to love all the sandra boynton books.
The children always seem to get a good laugh at the pigs singing and being told that it is not how they should sound.

Cute submitted by poptart887 on June 29, 2018, 11:10am LOVE this one it is fun to read. 2 yr old makes all the sounds now!

Perfect submitted by elepling on August 5, 2018, 10:20pm Silly book of animal sounds & singing

Fun submitted by Rumshaker13 on August 15, 2019, 10:30am This is a fun one and highly recommend for your little ones

Fun submitted by JennJenn on August 7, 2020, 11:27pm In true Boynton style this is a simple yet fun book that is easy to read and memorize.

Awesome book for parents to read to kids! submitted by Xris on August 28, 2020, 5:19pm The rhymes are just so memorable and fun, that I still remember them, even though my oldest is 25. "No, No, you say, that isn't right! Pigs say Oink all day and night!"

Favorite for little one submitted by Msprenger26 on July 2, 2022, 9:40pm A classic, quick, and so fun

A Sing-Song Singalong submitted by Meginator on July 25, 2022, 11:33am My primary complaint about this book is that its best joke comes at the very beginning, although everything does lead up to a satisfying ending and, anyway, any complaints at all are really just unnecessarily splitting hairs about a simple and charming board book that has a timeless appeal to it. The singsong text, simple illustrations, and use of animal noises invite collaborative read-aloud experiences even for especially young readers and it’s almost impossible not to smile while reading the book. Even among Sandra Boynton’s usually high-quality output, this is a standout.

I have it memorized! submitted by skairis on August 8, 2022, 12:33am We've read this book so much I have it memorized. My daughter loves it, which means I do too! I love that the library has board books you can rent, so much less worry when I allow my daughter to handle the book herself. Thanks for having books for readers of all ages!

Good for 1 year old submitted by emaelshaikh on August 20, 2022, 7:45pm Silly but meaningless fun

A favorite in our house submitted by leah karr on August 22, 2022, 9:34am Not sure if my kids enjoyed the book or just the way my husband and I would read them in silly voices! Very fun for all!

Toddler sings to it submitted by melissa4b on June 26, 2023, 7:15pm So cute reading this to my toddler they love to say the animal sounds and sing “la la la”

So Fun! submitted by psbritton on June 30, 2023, 1:45pm A great book for young ones!

Favorite of her books submitted by cdeucher on July 11, 2023, 8:13am Oh my goodness, who doesn't love singing pigs. Can't tell you how many times I have gifted this book always to great enjoyment.

Another classic from Sandy B submitted by dpersonke on July 19, 2023, 8:16am This is a favorite around our house. For a real thrill, sing the title to the opening melody of Lady Gaga's "Bad Romance" Moooo-Ba La La LaaAAAAaaa!

Toddler favorite submitted by ebourchtein on August 27, 2023, 8:02pm This is the first book my toddler memorized! She loves it. Highly recommended
