This is a book for children of all ages, not just 4-8. I have 3 children, the youngest of which is 16 months old. All three love it. The pictures are adorable (especially the pig) and the story is typical of children's thoughts (flying from one thing to the next). My 8 yr old likes to read it to the baby and laughs with the story which makes the baby laugh. If you liked the "If you give a mouse a cookie..." book, you will love this one also.
This book makes me laugh-out-loud; it is so adorable and cute!"If You Give A Pig A Pancake" helps the child see what we as adults go through running after her giving in to her little whims and idiosyncrasies! Let's hope as she gets older she will understand what this book is trying to say:1) Appreciate and be thankful for your parent(s).2) Don't take life too seriously.3) Live life to the fullest and have fun!4) Be your own person.5) You never have to grow up.6) Don't worry about trivial matters; just say "oh, go have a pancake!"7) Help others; what you give has a way of coming back to you-- DOUBLE.This is a great book for all ages; it is the female version of "If You Give A Mouse A Cookie." I highly recommend both books; great illustrations and short easy-to-read stories.Your child will be reading in no time if you read fun books like this to her, and simultaneously you'll be laughing as well!GO BUY THIS BOOK!
My 6-yr-old daughter begged me to get this book thru a school book club, which I did. It continues the series of books ("If You Give a Mouse a Cookie", and "If You Give a Moose a Muffin") which she absolutely loves. Years ago, we got "If You Give a Moose a Muffin". She loved it so much, I made it a point to get "If You Give a Mouse a Cookie", and eventually "If You Give a Pig a Pancake". She reads these books over and over. Yes, the storyline is ridiculous. That's the entire charm of the books! It's so off-the-wall, that it makes my daughter giggle with laughter every time.
We have several of the If you Give.... books by Laura Numeroff and Felicia Bond. And they are all such favorite reading.In this book we meet the cutest little pig, and the girl that owns the pig. She starts with giving the pig a pancake (a great way of playing with words with the kids), and when he gets the pancake he wants syrup, you find the syrup and he wants...... you are on the run untill you are back again on the last pages where pig's sticky hands reminds him of your favorite syrup, and of course no syrup without a pancake. Any child loves this way of playing with words, and playing with - what will happen next :-)We live in Norway, and my youngest one understands only a little English yet, so I translate for her while reading. My dream is to have these books translated into Norwegian - what a treasure to give the small kids of Norway.By the way, the book is also fun reading for older kids, and for grown ups. Why should the small kids have all the good picture books :-)Britt Arnhild Lindland
While nothing beats "If You Give a Mouse a Cookie," the original, this one is a charmer, too. My daughter loves it and reads it over and over. I love to read it to her! Isn't it fun to get a book that is fun to read out loud, too?
I love this book!!!!!!! I have used this book and the other books by Laura Numeroff & Felicia Bond in my classroom all year long. The children love them also. By the end of the school year the children were reading and reciting the book with me. This is a great addition to any library (home or school) for young children or for children of any age. Once you read it you will love it as well.
It is fun and playful, and my children want to read it every nigh
This book, and the accompanying pig doll, are adorable for preschool age children. My 5 year old son really enjoys reading the book with me - and sometimes he "reads" it to me.It is a cute way to encourage children's memory and illustrate how things sometimes go in circles.A wonderful treat for a birthday or holiday gift.
