Let's Go for a Drive!-An Elephant and Piggie Book

Elephant Gerald and Piggie embark on an enthusiastic adventure with one goal in mind: to go for a drive. The excitement builds as they meticulously plan every aspect of their journey, however, their plans take an unexpected turn when they realize they lack a crucial component for their drive - a car!Through Elephant and Piggie's escapades, young readers learn about the importance of adaptability, problem-solving, and friendship. 🤝 These themes are presented in a playful and accessible manner, making them easy for children to understand and apply in their own lives.

I started reading to my now toddler when she was still a baby. I was a bit bored by all the children's books until I discovered Mo Willems. Then, when she started comprehending a bit about what's going on on the page (first more in terms of pictures), this was a bit complex for her. She did, however, like Willems's Cat the Cat series at the time.Now she's 22 months old, and wow, she just LOVES Elephant and Piggy, and all the Pigeon books! (The Knuffle Bunny series has to wait a bit longer, probably for a year.) She asks me to read "the drive," "the rain" (are you ready to play outside), "the pigeon bath" etc. over and over again, and I am happy to indulge her wishes!So many children's books (surprisingly for me) have lazy rhymes or underwhelming illustrations, and sometimes confusing or even downright dangerous "messages," but Mo Willems keeps the storylines light and funny, and I never have to "adjust" my reading by changing the text. I'm so grateful we've discovered him early on!

This is a modern classic, the kids love it and I love it.

A mi hijo le encanto , es muy interesante

My 2 year old LOVES cars, so I got this for him since it was only $5. THERE IS NO CAR IN THIS BOOK. They spend the whole book gathering supplies to go in a car, then realize they don't actually have a car.BUT, the story line is really cute and funny and my kid really enjoyed it. I love that pig and elephant books are longer, but only have a few words per page. Makes a good book for kids just starting out learning to read.

I bought this for one of my new to English students who doesn't have books at home. He loves this series! It is 1st grade level but the humour was enjoyed by this 3rd grader. The author uses repetitive words and phrases which helpful to beginning readers but keeps the story moving and interesting. The illustrations are cute and the emotions of the characters are well depicted, giving new readers additional context clues. I highly recommend Mo Willems books for beginning readers and plan on purchasing more for a family member's child when she begins reading.

The Elephant and Piggie books are great for young readers. My daughters love them, and they are easy to read.

Ok, I have never reviewed a children’s book, but I think this one deserves it.The book is so cute and funny. My kids love it so much that they literally recite it daily (they are 1 and 3). My older child has now started “reading” it to my younger, and it is the cutest thing.We love this book, and I recommend it to everyone!

Adding to a series of classroom books for grade 1 and 2.

Súper divertido para niños pequeños, inclusive para niños que están aprendiendo a leer inglés, muy fácil de entender y de leer.

We love piggie and elephant and this was on super offer!

My little boy aged 4 loves all of the Elephant and Piggie books. This one is just as good as the rest.

J'ai découvert ce livre et j'en suis tombée amoureuse <3Je l'ai commandé pour lire des histoires simples à ma fille en anglais et j'ai adoré l'histoire et les illustrations.C'est humoristique mignon et instructif.L'auteur est Mo Willems qui a participé à 1 rue Sésame et au célèbre Muppet Show plus jeune.Je ne connaissait pas cet auteur mais il a gagné avec ce livre et plusieurs autres de la série Piggie and Gérald (le cochon et l'éléphant) des prix c'est mérité.A découvrir absolument!!!
