John Lehon at Storytime

Piggie Pie by Margie Palatini; illustrated by Howard Fine
If you were a witch hungry for piggie pie and you had all the ingredients (eye of fly, rattlesnake's rattle, hair of opossum) to make it, except for eight plump piggies, where would you look? Old MacDonald's farm! Call EI-EI-O. Fly with Gritch the witch and find out how the pigs outsmart her in this sardonically humorous read-aloud.

Through the Mickle Woods by Valiska Gregory; illustrated by Barry Moser
Stunning images help portray a wise and magical story that celebrates the human spirit. (Sorry, this book is out of print.)

Emily by Michael Bedard
    A picture book about Emily Dickinson? Read it. You'll love it!

Three Little Wolves and the Big Bad Pig by Eugene Tresigas
    A hilarious retelling-in-reverse of the traditional tale.

Aunty Claus by Elise Primavera
    Is Sophie's aunt just another eccentric New Yorker or Santa's right-hand man? My new favorite Christmas book.

Happy Hocky Family by Lane Smith
    Affectionate spoof of our beloved Dick and Jane and Spot. A laugh on every page.
