Elephant and Piggie Books

May 4, 2014 by mybookboost

elepandpiggie

Has your child gotten into a series of books yet? My 1st grader loves the Elephant and Piggie books by Mo Willems. They have been great for increasing his reading fluency because he loves to read the books over and over. I have noticed this series is great for a 1st grader in terms of reading level and topics six and seven year olds enjoy.

I had seen some of these books before, but didn’t take a lot of notice. Then, Trevor started to talk about them all the time and we found each one by getting them from the library or buying them. They really are clever, funny, and cute. My personal favorite is We Are in a Book. My son’s favorite is I Am Invited to a Party.

One thing I hope to remember- if one of my kids just loves a certain series, try to go with it. If they’re motivated themselves, it will only increase their love of reading.

Have you read any books in this series? If so, what did you think?

    My daughter loved this series last year as a 1st grader! I would highly recommend. I wish he had books on a 2nd grade reading level!

    My kids are grown and so we don’t have a need to read these type of books, but we would read all the time when they were little. I will keep this series in mind for when I have grand-kids someday… but I also love to give books as baby shower and birthday gifts too – so thank you for your recommendation!

    I have noticed you don’t monetize your page, don’t waste your traffic, you can earn additional cash every month because you’ve got
