Review # 1 was written on 2019-11-18 00:00:00 Peter Pis Pigs by Gail Gibbons gives readers an inside look to one of the smartest farm animals out there. Learn about basic characteristics, common breeds, the life cycle, uses of pigs, and their intelligence. Gibbons always writes such incredible nonfiction books! They are kid friendly and teaches them all the information they need to know about a topic. Great book to use during any animal or farm unit in the classroom. When we learn about the farm at the end of the year I use this text to teach students about pigs. I also use Gibbons other texts on other farm animals in this unit.

Review # 2 was written on 2016-11-17 00:00:00 Matthew Meintel This book was honestly more informative about pigs than I ever thought it would be. There are many different types of pigs than I thought, as well as names for even a pig who hasn't had piglets yet, and a different name for one who has! The illustrations were very detailed and specific when it came to all the different pigs and the various parts of a pig. In the back of the book, you can read to your students the history of pigs, which is very cool, too, because who thinks about pigs first being used by people in Egypt?! I certainly liked this adorable pig book and would love to use it when teaching about farm animals and the likes.
