DESCRIPTION:
Explore the concepts of big, bigger, and biggest while giggling at the image of a cow squeezing into a car to drive a pig into town. What's bigger than a pig? You may well wonder. A pig is bigger than my hat. And the universe? Well The universe is wide in girth It is the biggest thing of all. A pig is fat. A cow is bigger than a pig. A car is bigger than a cow. Compared to it. What's big? A pig is big. Florian's rhyming, ever-expanding verses make us turn those pages as fast as we can; his fabulous colored pencil and watercolor illustrations are what slow us down to a lingering pace. all things seem small. Florian's well-loved Mammalabilia: Poems and Paintings and Winter Eyes are equally read-aloudable! (Ages 3 to 6) --Emilie Coulter. A truck is bigger than a car. Fortunately, Douglas Florian and a very big, very pink pig have all the answers
Love it! We checked this out from the library and loved it so much, we bought it! It really is read-outloudable. And the illustrations are great.. Love this story for my 2 year old Jenemi Great story about a thought provoking concept of what's bigger than the thing on each page taking us all the way to the universe being the "biggest thing of all". I love stories that make my little one think and I think this does that in a very charming, well written way.
What is big? Join Douglas Florian and a decidedly big pink pig as they travel around town, across a continent, and through the universe, taking a look at things that are big bigger biggest!Bulletin Blue Ribbon Best of 2000 Award
