Description

A rhyming picture book featuring pig construction workers that's perfect for fans of Good Night, Good Night, Construction Site.

Construction crew chief Rosie and her team are building a new road to the Hamshire County Fair. It's time to put on hard hats and boots, grab their hammers and stakes, and, of course, bring out the big trucks: bulldozers, excavators, pavers, rollers, and more!

Unfortunately, work with Rosie's crew doesn't always go as planned, and Curly, Pinky, and Stinky end up making one huge mess. Rosie is there to save the day, but she can't do such a big job all by herself. The county fair is starting soon, and there's only one way to get the road done on time . . . teamwork!

Editorial Reviews

Praise for Pigs Dig a Road

"For collaboration and construction enthusiasts, this work about leading through empowering others (even unintentionally) underlines the capacity for anyone--or any pig--to steer." --Publishers Weekly

"Truck mavens will especially appreciate this humorous tale, expressed in jaunty rhymes; they'll enjoy observing favorites doing their special tasks, while others will learn about specific trucks' functions. Commendably, Finison and Biggs portray female characters--indeed, one in a supervisory position--in typically male-dominated jobs. Biggs' thick-lined, digital illustrations of expressive, industrious pigs are comically lively; onomatopoeic words are occasionally incorporated into the artwork. A cheery tale with a much-needed message: The road to success is predicated on collaboration." --Kirkus Reviews
