The classic piggy market tale you love, but this time you don't have to touch anyone's feet. A must-have for any modern parent!
Based on the beloved nursery rhyme, This Little Piggy Went to Market in the City takes you through farmers' markets, where piggies grapple with insufferable hipster crowds, poke fun at fad diets, and contemplate composting, among other things. This will be a book parents will actually want to read to their kids for the hundredth time.
In this book, the author and illustrator:
  • Play with insights about the happenings of farmers markets in cities.
  • Examine the burden of dealing with crowds when you really just want to eat an almond croissant.
  • Nod to the feeling of loss and disappointment when you forget your canvas tote.
  • Ponder what composting is, exactly?
  • Poke fun at trend diets like The Ketogenic Diet.
  • Allude to how a vegetarian piggy would handle this market.
