To Market, To Market [Paperback]

Anne Miranda’s inventive twist on a classic rhyme tells what happens after a shopper goes “to market, to market, to buy a fat pig.” Back home the pig promptly escapes, and soon the pig’s in the kitchen, the lamb’s on the bed, the cow’s on the couch--and the rest of the animals are wreaking havoc throughout the house.

“An ideal choice for sharing aloud.”—School Library Journal
“The skillfully wielded visual anarchy explodes off the page....This is one market trip children will wish to take again and again.”—Publishers Weekly
“Howl as Miranda's retake blindsides Mother Goose with a shopping cart.”—The Bulletin
