"A fun-filled introduction to maps through the eyes of an adorable
pig"
Henry is a very particular sort of pig. "A place for everything
and everything in its place," he always says. But when he looks out
his window he is troubled. The farm is a mess Henry is worried that
nobody will be able to find anything in this mess. So he draws a
map showing all the animals exactly where they belong. And Henry
embarks on a journey through the farm, his friends tagging along as
he creates his map: sheep in the woolshed, chickens in the coop,
the horse in the stable. After the map is complete, Henry uses it
to bring himself back home, where he is relieved to know that he is
exactly where he belongs. A place for everything and everything in
its place, indeed.
For fans of "Zen Shorts" by Jon J. Muth or of Winnie the Pooh,
this sweet romp through the farm is adorably illustrated by David
Elliot, who created the endearing animals who inhabit Brian Jacques
world of "Redwall." Perfect for pre-schoolers and
elemetary-schoolers learning to read maps for the first time.
