Books Like Happy Pig Day!
Why kids love Happy Pig Day!
High energy physical comedy

The use of color coded dialogue bubbles helps new readers easily identify who is speaking while creating a fast paced reading experience that feels like a cartoon.
Melodramatic character reactions
Gerald the elephant expresses his worries with such hilarious intensity that children find his over the top anxiety funny rather than frightening.
A surprise twist ending
The revelation that the party guests are actually other animals in disguise provides a satisfying moment of cleverness that makes kids want to re read the book to find the clues.
