Super cute book. Great for preschoolers to learn about the joy of books and libraries.

This is a cute book, an easy reader with a story for the one who loves books but struggles to read them.

This is the type of book I like to read my preschoolers. It was a good mix of fun and engaging but not too wordy.

I picked up this book for my library thinking it was just a cute story about a pig who horded books. I didn't expect to be moved by this book-loving pig who is actually illiterate and finds joy at his local library (as well as literacy).

The Book Hog loves books so much. He loves smelling them. He loves owning them. He even looks at them while he sits on the toilet. But the Book Hog has a secret: he can't actually read. So when he has an opportunity to attend storytime at the library, his book-loving heart jumps at the chance.

This book really speaks to the idea that adults can instill a love of books in kids before they can even read. There is something about actually holding a book that is powerful. And adults have the power to nurture that in kids at a very early age.
