these books are always great

Great message about what we do for our friends, and how we treat our friends!

"I Really Like Slop!" is a story about trying something new (even though you think you'll hate it). How DO you know, if you've never tried it?

My Conclusion: I *REALLY* like "I Really Like Slop"! It's the second book in the series that I've read, and I am looking forward to reading more. Mo Willem is great at balancing comedic effects with the character's respect for each other (which is a perfect match for a story about differing tastes), and the illustrations are hilarious and full of life.

Gerald's Conclusion: " No. I do not really like slop. But, I am glad I tried it. Because I really like you."

D'awwww. <3

There is just no bad Piggie & Elephant book. They are all wonderful and fun and unique.

Charming and fun and funny--as always. Love Elephant and Piggy forever!! :)

Mo Willems reminds his young readers that it is always nice to try new foods, even if you do not like them. When Piggie arrives with a huge pail of slop, Gerald is extremely disinterested. However, Piggie raves all about a pig's favourite food, slop! Hesitantly, Gerald inches it closer to his mouth, trunk quivering, until he places a pea-sized bit of slop onto his tongue. The reaction is amazing and is sure to thrill the reader. Neo has tried many foods, some he likes and others not up his alley whatsoever. It's important to try and hope for the best!
funny lighthearted
Loveable characters: Yes

 Elephant & Piggie are so great! And I LOVE the message of trying food even you think (or know) you won’t like it. Or even just trying THINGS because your friends love them!

Mo Willems....I want to be you...This is the best Elephant & Piggie EVER!!!
