Mo Willems' award-winning Elephant and Piggie series continues to charm readers. Featuring two lovable and funny characters -- an optimistic (and sometimes reckless) pig and a cautious, pessimistic elephant -- these books make reading irresistible to the beginning readers.  Children who sat on their parents' laps to have Pigeon read to them will eagerly take the plunge with these books to start reading on their own.   

Each book has been vetted by an early learning specialist (and many adorable early learners).

 

In Elephants Cannot Dance!, Piggy sure cuts a mean rug, and she's so pleased with herself she wants to teach everyone--especially her best friend, Gerald. But has anyone ever seen an elephant dance? Is it possible? Throwing everyone's expectations aside, Gerald demonstrates that even Elephants have moves.
