We love books in this house! Lots and lots and lots of books. All three girls have custom made bookcases – built by my husband – thank you very much, and they are crammed full of wonderful, interesting, well read books! It is something I really try to push around here – a lasting love for the written word. I have many fond memories of curling up under a blanket on my balcony growing up and reading late into the night.
To keep their interest in books at its peak, I am constantly looking high and low for quality, affordable, sturdy books at stores I visit! But sometimes, I like to sit down, usually on the internet, and look at a collection or website to see what else might be out there for my children and their age group.
Luckily, there is a wonderful website called PiggyToesPress.com that allows me to do just that! The Spring 2011 catalog is out for Piggy Toes Press and Intervisual Books, the innovative creator of pop up, novelty, board, gift and activity books! Their latest publications feature Disney, Sesame Street, Crayola and many more! They also publish some of our family favorites like Ten Little Ladybugs and Eight Silly Monkeys! In fact, you will not believe the variety and quality of their books – easily displayed in their 39 page catalog of searching happiness!
I was lucky enough to receive 5 books from PiggyToesPress.com. My oldest ran out to get the package and the three girls and I ripped it open! The girls squealed in delight and quickly claimed the books they saw as theirs! Katie took What Makes A Rainbow and Sarah gathered up the Crayola books, – Colors and Animals, Counting Sea Life and the Dinosaurs Board Book – happily told me they were “MINE” and curled up on the couch with her loot. Megan, left on the floor with me, was happily pointing at Sesame Street’s Elmo’s Ultimate Edition Storybook and saying “Momo… Momo”. While helping Megan find more “Momo”s and “Bebu” (Big Bird), I listened to Sarah excitedly yell out “Look Mama, the butterfly is blue!” and Katie ‘reading’ aloud, “so then there was the green color on the rainbow…” and was thrilled to see them enjoying books like they should be.
I was so impressed with the selection and quality of these great books, that I went back to the website and made a wish list! I was glad to see that the prices of the books were very reasonable and, I knew from experience, delivery was fast! As I continued to scan, I realized that the variety of products is vast! They have bonded leather classics like Dracula, “green” teaching books like Choose to Recycle, a large collection of seasonal books, and many, many more! Really, take some time and scroll through the pages of this wonderful catalog. Or, download and view and print it as a .pdf file, mark the ones you like and hunt them down the next time you are at a book store or any other retailer that sells books!
Needless to say, I am very excited about PiggyToesPress.com and HIGHLY recommend their products for your child’s book needs!

I think I did just about all of them! Whenever my boyfriend and I go to the bookstore he knows he can find me in the children’s book section. As a teacher I’m always on the lookout for new and great books.

I enjoy reading about Piggy Toes Press. I love their innovative and creative books. I read Ten Little Ladybugs many times with my niece and to myself! My niece likes the die-cut plastic ladybugs. It’s a great interactive experience, it feels like the ladybugs are really there with you as you read the book! The three-dimentional aspect of the book is more fun than a flat page!
They are a fantastic company and I am so honored they chose me to do a review! Thank you for reading!
