Farm Stories

My internet teacher friend, Stacie, recently sent me a package in the mail. It was the best kind of gift because it wasn't my birthday or for any other occasion. She saw it at a book fair at her school and thought of me, making my PIG HOMEPAGE for teacher's resource!
I was so suprised when she sent me a new PIG book and a little pig to go with it! The new book is called LITTLE PIG BIDDLE PIG by David Kirk. (Many of you know the author from the MISS SPIDER series.) The pretty, little stuffed pig is sitting on my computer, urging me to get this homepage finished so it can be shared with many teachers all over the world.
I must admit, BIDDLE PIG is a great encourager. Thank you, Stacie!



PIG Literature:




I got a new book for Christmas about two little pigs -- it is about two of my favorite things: pigs and snow! (If you look closely, you will see the url for these pages is "piggysnow") It is called "I'll Be Home For Christmas" and features Toot and Puddle, two little pigs.It's a Christmas story and the snow is quite deep that particular Christmas.
If you look very closely, you just might see Santa in the story.
The author is Hollie Hobby ISBN 0 316 36623 4
I also have the two little stuffed pigs that go with it -- one is holding a star for the Christmas tree and the other, a Christmas stocking. They both have on PJs with a trap door for their tails!
I hope you will look for this book to share with your children too!
