"A story with the echoes of Seuss and Willems."- Publishers Weekly (starred review) "A boatload of giggles will keep the reader returning for more easy-to-read fun."- Kirkus Reviews The first book in the vibrant and laugh-out-loud funny early reader What This Story Needs series is perfect for fans of Dr. Seuss and Mo Willems! What this story needs is a pig in a wig, on a boat in a moat with a frog, a dog, and a goat on a log... As a panda in...

Join Pig and her friends in another fun read-aloud adventure as they figure out a way to keep the picnic fun and games going, even with a little rain. What this story needs is a pig in a wig baking bread, pouring punch, and meeting a friend for a picnic lunch. But just as the outdoor fun and games get started, a thunderstorm rolls in and it turns out what this story really needs is . . . another place to eat!

Pig takes the lead in a cross-country race, but then gets stuck in the mud.

A red-coiffed pig joins her friends for a picnic lunch that is hampered by a thunderstorm.
