Porky Pies

“From bestselling children’s author and master of comedy Ross Montgomery. Filled with Marisa Morea’s colourful and characterful illustrations, an addictive sense of fun, and messages about the consequences of getting caught in a lie … This action-packed adventure, which delivers a witty and wonderful twist on The Three Little Pigs and The Boy Who Cried Wolf … guarantees readers will have the last laugh!” – Lancashire Evening Post

“A brilliant new take on two favourite fairy tales … It is absolutely perfect for Year 1 children who are familiar with the original stories. They’ll enjoy spotting the adaptations and the funny situations the little pig finds himself in … Children will be gasping and giggling as they realise what’s happening to this naughty little pig!” – Scope for Imagination, blog

“This is such a delightfully funny story where young readers will relate to Porky’s mischievousness but equally, there’s thought-provoking conversations to be had about the importance of telling the truth.” – Check ‘Em Out Books
