The Book Hog by Greg Pizzoli
4.0
This the rare library-related book that actually has a plot and a problem that the character overcomes. I enjoyed reading this during my storytimes this week, and my appreciation for it grew as I saw parents' and children's reactions to it. It's fun to read it aloud dramatically, especially during the part about the pig having a secret. I was pleased that the audience was so engaged.
The illustrations are also unique and fun. The pig and elephant characters seem like a Mo Willems rip-off, but they're stylistically different, and I love the minimalistic color palette and many appealing details in the pictures.
