Benjamin Pig and the Apple Thieves Annabelle Pig and the Travellers
David McKee at his best with two witty stories ideal for fledgeling readers or to read aloud. Benjamin Pig manages to con the apple thieves into picking his apples for him before they're forced to retreat, victims to a clever 'sting', and Annabelle discovers that home is where her heart is. Two familiar themes, yet David McKee offers them to us with freshness and verve that keeps the reader and listener spellbound from cover to flip-over cover!
