About This Book
In Kelly S. DiPucchio's rhyming picture book, BED HOGS, Little Runt, a young pig, longs for more space in his family's crowded bed. He systematically, and humorously, removes each family member, from Mama and Papa to his many siblings. However, the quiet solitude of an empty bed quickly turns into loneliness, prompting Little Runt to invite his beloved family back. This charming story, perfect for ages 4-8, gently explores themes of personal space, family love, and the comfort of togetherness, making it an ideal read-aloud for bedtime.
