The publisher and author of Under a Pig Tree seem to be having communication issues. The author has written a clear, no-nonsense history of figs. But the publisher is sure she meant pigs. After all, what’s the difference between two measly letters? What results is a hilarious illustrated history of pigs, from the earliest times (“Pigs were presented as ‘medals’ to the winners of the first Olympics”) to the present day (“There is nothing better than enjoying a cup of tea or glass of milk with one of those famous Pig Newtons”). The author, needless to say, is not happy about this “little mix-up” and makes her feelings very clearly known—by scrawling all over the book! With sticky notes from the publisher, angry scribbles from the author, wrinkles, and pages askew, Under a Pig Tree is a playful peek into a book in “midproduction” and a humorous look at the consequences of small mistakes, by industry pro Margie Palatini and up-and-coming talent Chuck Groenink.

They heard the ground grumble. Then they felt the ground rumble. And before they knew it, they were all taking a tumble! "The earth is crumbling! The earth is crumbling! It's a quake!" quacked the duck. In this inspired take on Henny Penny, who thought the sky was falling, Chucky Ducky, Lucy Goosey, and Vickie, Nickie, and Rickie Chickie spread the alarm that the earth is quaking. But just like Henny Penny, these concerned animals find that the cause of the crisis they fear is not what they expect at all. Filled with clever wordplay, Margie Palatini's rollicking romp is given an added dimension through Barry Moser's dynamic and playful illustrations.

Three fun-loving armadillo sisters need to cross a busy highway in this spirited spin on a classic tale. Lilly, Jilly, and Dilly decide the safest option to get to the new dance hall is to scurry through the culvert that runs under the road. But inside the culvert lurks a spindly legged coyote with a big appetite for "armadilly chili." The littlest sister, Lilly, manages to fast-talk her way past the coyote, as does her older sister, Jilly. When the coyote sees the size of the eldest, Dilly, she really starts licking her chops. But Dilly Armadilly Tuff is a stubborn gal with her own ideas about what a lonely coyote really needs! Jackie Mims Hopkins' hilarious retelling of "Three Billy Goats Gruff" features a southwestern twang and a delightful surprise ending. S. G. Brooks' lighthearted, appealing illustrations bring the colorful characters to life.
