Pigs in Sheds

Bypeter Millett, Illustrate­dby Shaunyeo, Batemanboo­ks, $19.99

..

.. .. .. .. .. This book is hilarious. I laughed all the way through it. Especially whenthe ‘big bad sheepdog’ growled ‘Little pig little pig, let mecomein’ and the little pig replied ‘get off the grass mate, you’re not coming in’. Brilliant Kiwi humour all the way through this book based on the classic children’s story of The Three Little Pigs.

Eye-popping colourful illustrati­ons from Shaun Yeo finish off this tale of three perky porkers in a pen in Pokeno. Fantastic.
