Schwartz's clever rhyming text flows nicely. -- <i>Booklist</i>A fractured fairy tale to outcharm the original, 'The Three Ninja Pigs' manages to one-up the well-worn story by setting it in Japan, sprinkling it with the language and discipline of martial arts. All in hilarious, impeccable rhyme. -- <i>The New York Times Book Review</i>For young martial arts fans seeking a lighthearted book about their hobby, Schwartz's story should fit the bill... The idea of three gi-clad pigs fighting the big bad wolf is a winner. -- <i>Publishers Weekly</i>A standout among fractured fairy tales, masterfully combining rollicking limerick verse with a solid story. -- <i>Kirkus Reviews</i><b>Praise for <i>Will Ladybug Hug?</i> by Hilary Leung: </b>*Clear, endearing, and important. -- <i><i>Kirkus Reviews</i> starred review</i><b>Praise for <i>Will Bear Share? </i>by Hilary Leung: </b><b>* A clear and winning guide to a key social grace; share and repeat as necessary. -- <i>Kirkus Reviews</i> starred review</b><b>Praise for <i>Will Sheep Sleep? </i>by Hilary Leung: </b>Leung handsomely colors the pages in woodgrainlike textures and in striking shades, including jade green and dusky rose.
