GARTH PIG AND THE ICECREAM LADY (Garth Pig & the Ice Ream Lady)

Rating:
Summary: one of my childhood favorites!
Review: Garth Pig is a fabulous children's book, and it ought to be reprinted! My parents still remember long passages of the text 20 years later, they read it to me so many times. Garth's kidnapping by the ice cream lady (a wolf) and his dramatic rescue by his nine daring siblings on their 10-seat bicycle will captivate kids of all ages, and the wit and fun along the way is sure to charm adults as well. This is a gentle story, too - bravery and honesty from the protagonist piggies, and the ice cream lady is "never seen again" - nothing too scary for little ones. You'll thank yourself for tracking down this great book!

Summary: a great bed time story
Review: I had grown up with this book and it takes you into another world. They are fun stories, and Garth has had other stories written about him too. A funny, well worth it read.
