![]() The story begins with a witch named Gritch who wants to make “piggie pie.” This unique recipe calls for “one eye of a fly, two shakes of a rattlesnake’s rattle, three belly hairs of a possum, and eight plump piggies.” She realizes she needs pigs as a result, she decides to take a trip to the farm. In my opinion, I think “Piggie Pie” is a superb book for children to read. ![]() I am also ordering the 3rd book in the series - Broom Mates - hoping it will be just as delightful. I am ordering some used copies, because my personal library will never be complete with out them. She said - ".and you have to read it with the different voices!" As I was reading it, I suddenly heard my then 21 year old son running down the stairs, excited - jumped on the couch next us, and listened intently, as I read - with a smile on his face. Suddenly she ran upstairs to her old room, and ran back down with Piggie Pie. I was caught off guard - but after reading a few stories from Hans Christian Anderson, she didn't seem satisfied. One day, my then 18 year old daughter, asked me to read to her. ![]() This was also my two kids' favorite books to have read allowed, even as young adults. Over the years, Piggie Pie lost a page or two, and Zoom Broom just disappeared, however, I pretty much had memorized Piggie Pie. I purchased this and the sequel, Zoom Broom, many years ago - late 90's. ![]() ![]() This is one of my all time favorite children's books. ![]()
