I picked up this book because of the crazy drawing on the front cover. What could this water contraption be used for and would those pigs up in the building be using it. My first guess was right. By the name of the book, Hogwash, I could tell that this thing on the front cover would be used to clean a bunch of pigs.
The simple but essential illustrations made the story really come to life. And since there are no words in this book it is up to you to fill in the blanks of the story with your imagination.
The story begins when a bunch of piglets go out and get all muddy and full of pain. The piglets' mom had to figure out some way to get all of them clean so she came up with a machine that resembled a big car wash. In no time at all, all of the piglets were soaped up, cleaned and hung to dry.
This book would be great for Kindergarten to second grade. It can show them that even if they have a big task at hand, like washing tons of piglets, they can get it done if they put their mind to it.
