Be kind to the swine. Don’t give them the blame.
Treat all pigs with kindness. Shake a hoof, ask their name!
As a gesture of kindness, consider biscuits and tea.
I’ve heard roast beef and pound cake makes a pig squeal with glee!
Or…
You could take a piggy to market and buy some new shoes…
add some bloomers, some stockings and a handbag or two!
Yes be kind to the pig. Turn his gray skies to blue.
But first wash your hands. Please don’t give him Swine Flu!
Achoo!

Last year I participated in the ABC Childrens Picture Book Competition Round 4… and what do you think happened?
A hurricane named Ike came right through Houston and knocked the power out, leaving us with no lights, no water, no air conditioning for two and a half weeks. Yep… right in the middle of the competition!! There was no way to promote much less find out what was going on in the outside world!
So this year… I’m back for Round 5 of the competition!
I’ve been chosen to illustrate a scene from Sorry Doesn’t Clean It Up by Wendy Rogalinski. It’s an adorable story about a whirlwind of a boy who blows through rooms leaving a mess in his wake! Talk about a hurricane!!
Also, if you would consider highlighting “Sorry Doesn’t Clean it Up” and the competition on your blog… or post this picture below to your side bar through October 4th….I’d be be so grateful!
