Hilarious and charming submitted by doctorfang on July 22, 2014, 3:18pm My son and I have read this book over 50 times, and we haven't tired of it. The illustrations are wonderfully charming and hilarious. Close inspection will reveal lots of hidden little jokes and running gags throughout the book. Wonderful.

Hilarious submitted by kathscot on July 12, 2016, 10:50pm My favorite of the series of animals to the rescue. A lot of fun to read and look at.

Favorite submitted by kathiravan on July 16, 2017, 8:52pm One of my favorite book. I Like the illustrations.

Help? submitted by FordAlpha on August 30, 2019, 10:30pm All kinds of mishaps beset the Greenstalks' farm. Good thing they have a crew of pigs ready and waiting to help out! Alas, in their enthusiasm, the pigs massively multiply the mayhem. This is basically a one-note song, but the illustrations are delightfully packed with action and running sight gags, making it fun to read a few times before returning it to the library.
