Mrs Pig Get Cross

Mary Rayner and Geraldine McEwan
28 mins, AUDIO, BOOK & TAPE, one cassette with paperback
Under 5s Pre-School/Nursery/Infant

This is a lovely package: an irresistible paperback and four stories read impeccably. Mrs Pig gets cross because the piglets never clear up after themselves, but later that night the foxy-faced burglar is foiled by tripping over the piglets' scattered toys. In another story, Mrs Pig finds herself with all ten piglets in bed with her because they've crept in one by one during the night whilst Mr Pig slept on. Geraldine McEwan tells the stories of domestic piglet naughtiness with an excellent balance of dramatisation and reassurance.
