Summary: A lot of rhyming fun
Review: "A Huge Hog Is a Big Pig," by Francis McCall and Patricia Keeler, is an enjoyable book. Each 2-page spread contains a riddle for which you have to guess a two-word rhyming response; when you turn the page, you have the answer. Examples: "A huge hog is a. . . BIG PIG." "A silly rabbit is a . . . FUNNY BUNNY." The book, which is set on a farm, is illustrated throughout with entertaining pictures of children and farm animals. Overall, a book with a lot of likeable energy.

Summary: A Ton of Fun (For Everyone!)
Review: This book is sure to be a 'rave fave' with hip tykes of all stripes. If you're looking for an interactive, playful book for kids, THIS IS IT! Kids & adults will have great fun reading it together. My kids were truly engaged by trying to guess the answers to the clues and couldn't wait to get to the next page. (Even grown-ups will get into the game!) Plus, 'A Huge Hog' features a diverse cast of cute kids & animals in bold, eye-catching photographs. The bright layout is the perfect compliment to the witty word game. I can guarantee that you'll want to keep on playing even when you're done reading!

Summary: better for reading to a class
Review: This book, I think, would be better for a storytime or a class because my daughter didn't get a lot of the riddles. (I know that sounds pathetic, but it's true.) If you have a group of kids, it will increase your chances that at least one of the kids will "get it," and then he/she can explain the joke to the other kids.
