Read if you Dare!,
By
This review is from: Meet Wild Boars (Paperback)
I confess I always cringe a little from reading tales of bad behaviour to my children. After all, I wouldn't want to give them any ideas! But I bought this book for a birthday gift for a five-year-old boy who had two older brothers, and when I read it to them after the party, even the twelve-year-old enjoyed the silly storyline! So it's a little naughty, and they talk about poo - it's just SO FUN that I can't wait to read more Wild Boar books to my three children!

A hilarious parable about bad manners,
By Corinne Colbert "Corkey C." - Published on Amazon.com
This review is from: Meet Wild Boars (Hardcover)
The four boars in this book are really boors -- the kind of playmates no child would want. The text is ideal for read-aloud, and the illustrations are witty and sly. Be forewarned: Those offended by farts and poop need not apply. My 7- and 5-year-olds have asked for this every night since we brought it home from the library. I think it will turn up for a birthday or Christmas!

Breath of Fresh Air,
By Russell Crabtree "Russell Crabtree" - Published on Amazon.com
This review is from: Meet Wild Boars (Hardcover)
I've never laughed so much reading a book to my kids. The words are witty and the pictures are hilarious. Oh and the kids like it, too.

Not your average PiggieWiggies.,
By T. Hardy - Published on Amazon.com
This review is from: Meet Wild Boars (Hardcover)
Not all adults are vegans, not all of us are patient, not all of us believe in angels. Kids know this. So why not vary their diet of Polar Expresses, Flopsy Bunnies and Flower Fairies with an amusing tale about life's darker facets. If you and your 5 year-old liked Walter the Farting Dog, which tells us that not all cuddly young puppies grow up to be loveable old dogs, you should pick up Meet Wild Boars. This quirkily illustrated book puts paid to any idea that animals in gingham dresses are automatically cute; Doris the Wild Boar and her pals are sly, spiteful, rude, malodorous and bent on destruction. Meg Rosoff has created a quartet of little monsters that kids will love to laugh at .
