Hogwash
Karma Wilson’s Hogwash, illustrated by Jim McMullan, turns a farmer’s wash day into a delightfully muddy adventure. The horses, ducks, cows, and other animals cooperate, but the pigs have a different plan: staying dirty is much more fun.
A farmyard battle of wills
Determined to get his stubborn hogs clean, the farmer tries one scheme after another. Each failed attempt adds to the comedy until he finds himself stuck in the mud, discovering that his pigs may have had the right idea all along.
Rhymes made for sharing
Wilson’s playful rhyming verse gives this story a lively read-aloud rhythm, while McMullan’s illustrations bring the mischievous pigs and their muddy antics to life. Share it during family storytime and enjoy the contrast between one determined farmer and a group of pigs who simply refuse to be washed.
