What This Story Needs Is A Hush and a Shush


What This Story Needs Is a Hush and a Shush. Emma J. Virjan. 2016. HarperCollins. 40 pages. [Source: Library]

First sentence: What this bedtime needs is a pig in a wig, brushing her teeth, combing her hair, and going to bed with her new teddy bear.

Premise/plot: Pig in a wig is ready for bed, but as she is settling in for the night, she has some guests drop by for a sleepover. Noisy barn animals have come! Will Pig in a wig handle the situation well?

My thoughts: I very much like the series overall. I think Virjan is great with rhythm and rhyme. Not every author who makes the attempt is. Good rhythm is more than finding words that rhyme. A good author also cannot be ruled by the rhymes, the story has to be a STORY. I would definitely recommend this series!
