Overview
This little piggy went to market, and he's not alone in this baker's dozen of traditional nursery rhymes set at a farmer's market. There are lots of other folk who have their own comestible business to attend to: Tommy Tucker, Jack Sprat, Miss Muffet, Peter Piper—even the little guy who eats his peas with honey. Joanne Fitzgerald creates a world of animal characters with the same charm and bounce as her latest bestseller, This is Me and Where I Am. A grand , lip-smacking collection for the little ones.
Joanne Fitzgerald is celebrated for her soft pastel palette, rich detail and warm, cuddly characters. She has won the Governor General's Award for her illustrations in Doctor Kiss Says Yes. The Little Rooster and the Diamond Button won the Mr. Christie Book Award. She also illustrated the board book, When You Get a Baby, and wrote and illustrated Yum! Yum!!. Born in Montreal, Quebec, Joanne divides her time between her homes in rural Ontario and New York City.
