Elephant and Piggie!

Elephant and Piggie by Mo Willems!
I love the Elephant and Piggie books by Mo Willems! These books are fun, creative, and maintain the kids attention. Here are just a few reasons why you should pick up these books today:
1. The characters are the same in each book so children will get to know Gerald and Piggie
2. The characters show their emotions clearly (excellent for kiddos with disabilities) 
3. There aren't any excessive words on a page, it is also written with thought talking bubbles above the characters heads
4. You can use the Gerald and Piggie stuffed animals to act out the book
5. The books teach about friendship, sharing, difference, and much more!


Elephant and Piggie Comic Strip
My students love the elephant and piggie books. When we have library time I see them trying to retell the story in their own words, acting it out with puppets, or stuffed animals, and requesting a read aloud. I used the graphics from Mo Willems to create a few simple story outlines for the kids to create their own story. The students loved this idea and came up with some extremely creative stories.  Comic Strip Printable

  1. Hi Erin!
    I found your blog today while looking for Piggie and Elephant stuff. I gave my class one of your comic strip sheets and they loved it! I ended up blogging about it and gave you full credit and a shout-out. Thank you so much!
    BTW, I see you have a house full of spaniels. We have a cocker crossed with a King Charles (we think). You can see me holding him in my "about me" pic. I LOVE spaniels. Yours are very cute!
    Take care and thanks again.
