Darling illustrations and simple, but not too preachy message about exploring the unknown. Should become a read-aloud favorite for both parents (short and easy rhyming reading) and children (interesting illustrations to explore and a fun story to share and expand). Very glad to have won this book. Will be sharing with young family members for years to come."-Mary Beth, First Reads BooksFrom the Author"My goal is for children to realize that allergies are a common thing that most people, and even pets, go through. Allergies do not discriminate nor should it make children feel different. I wanted to give children a book that they can relate to but in a simple context where the illustrations add more to the story. Itchy Pig can help children by shedding light on allergies in a way that they can understand so it can serve as a fun introduction for families to discuss allergies, listening to parents, to not fear what is unknown, and most importantly, to enjoy Mother Nature no matter it's itchy consequences."- Nicole Bruno CoxFrom the Inside FlapItchy Pig is an adorable, mischievous piglet who loves to play outside.
