Watch Me Throw the Ball! (Elephant and Piggie Books)

Gerald is careful. Piggie is not. Piggie cannot help smiling. Gerald can. Gerald worries so that Piggie does not have to. Gerald and Piggie are best friends. In WATCH ME THROW THE BALL!, Gerald is determined to teach Piggie that ball-throwing is a serious business... but Piggie is just as determined to have serious fun.

Told entirely in speech bubbles with a repetitive use of familiar phrases, this highly original book is perfect for children just learning to read. It is a vibrant new edition with bright colors that will appeal to young readers. It is a Theodor Seuss Geisel Award-winning series for the most distinguished books for beginner readers.

Willems's now classic and predictable formula, complete with an uncluttered background, large-type word balloons, and expressive characters, is as effective as ever. The style may now be familiar, but the "Elephant & Piggie" stories remain fresh, amusing, and relevant to readers, who will sit on the edge of their seats as they eagerly anticipate the surprising turn of events.

Full color.
