School Library Journal - 01/19/2024 PreS-Gr 2—Yes! A book about the adorable moss piglet! What is there not to love? Fay's hilarious retelling of the "Three Little Pigs" about the tardigrade is not only a joy to read, but educational to boot. This is a brilliant introduction to the chubby, microscopic creatures written in a familiar pattern which helps to make the facts easily digestible. The illustrations are rather accurate cartoon versions of the micro-animals. The pictures throughout the book as well as the end pages include interesting details for those little ones who have a strong thirst for information. VERDICT Buy this! Especially where there is a need for picture books which introduce children to new, intriguing topics or creatures, urging their minds to think and question.—Cassie Veselovsky - Copyright 2024 Publishers Weekly, Library Journal and/or School Library Journal used with permission.
