In traditional Mo Willems fashion, this book was absolutely adorable. Elephant and Piggie are playing catch when a snake comes and asks if he can play, but he doesn’t have any arms! Through the process of trial an error Piggie finally comes to a conclusion, where they are al able to play catch. The unique thing about this book was the dialogue. It was very short and straightforward, but because of the comic book style of using text bubbles, it seemed more meaningful. The background color of each bubble was different depending on which character was talking. They changed up the size and shape of the text and bubbles to match the mood and feeling of the character. Plus, the way they solve the dilemma in the end was very creative. I am now an Elephant and Piggie fan!
