Pigs Make Me Sneeze


Pigs Make Me Sneeze! An Elephant & Piggie Book. Mo Willems. 2009. Hyperion. 64 pages.

Gerald!
What do you want to do today?


In this sad adventure, Piggie learns that Gerald may not get to do what he wants today. Her friend, the oh-so-faithful, oh-so-fun elephant, has the sniffles, the sneezes. Gerald is almost convinced that their friendship is doomed. You see, he thinks that he may be allergic to pigs! Oh no! Can this friendship be saved? Will a trip to the doctor (a cat) cure him of his new allergy? Or is this the end of one of the greatest friendships?

It's never fun to be sick, to have a cold. But maybe reading a stack of Elephant and Piggie books will cheer up anyone feeling under the weather. Have you read them all yet?
