Review Copy Provided by Author
"Three little pigs try everything in their power to make or find mud. Along the way they learn a valuable life lesson. "
**OKay I review quite a few childrens books and I thought I should briefly mention that I do rate them a bit different than others for obvious reasons.
The most common things I rate them by are:
1) Did they hold the kids interest?
2) Were they able to retell the story for me?
3) Did the story make sense and get its message across?
and a few others that just depend solely on the particular book I am reviewing.
The Mudhogs passed all three of the above with flying colors! It was a cute and simple story that did get its point across which basically was Home is a wonderful place to be!
I was really impressed that not only was this book written by an 8-year old but that it's not even his 1st published work! This is his 3rd published book! I can't wait to see what stories he has yet to tell in his future! Great job Dalton!
