‘Be Brave, Pink Piglet’ now available!!
Phil’s new book , Be Brave, Pink Piglet published by Hachette Lothian Children’s Books and illustrated beautifully by the amazing Sarah Davis is OUT NOW!
Praise for Be Brave, Pink Piglet:
This is a charming story of bravery and determination …
A delightful read aloud story for younger readers, one that will encourage them to think about how brave they can be in attempting something new.
The repetition in the first section where he is frightened by the farm animals will please younger readers and encourage them to predict and read along with the increasingly familiar words.
Sarah Davis’ artwork will thrill younger readers as they recognise the farm animals and the antics they get up to, sympathising with Pink Piglet’s attempts at independence.
Highly Recommended. Fran Knight Read Plus.
