Being first isn't always best, as Pinkerton Pig finds out after an encounter with a mean Sand Witch. As always, Helen Lester's wonderfully offbeat humor and Lynn Munsinger's whimsical illustrations result in a hilarious lesson about piggishness. The picture book duo of Lester and Munsinger has created six previous books, including the award-winning TACKY THE PENGUIN. Featuring bonus audio! Review: Great for siblings who argue, LOL - LOVE LOVE LOVE. My littles are constantly fighting over who is first and this book has completely changed the game. Review: Me First book - Love this story. Best Halloween book ever plus a very important message learned from the book.

One of my Kids' Favorites
My kids loved this book when they were little, and we often referenced it when they wanted to get a little "pushy." When it came time to get books for the grand nephews, this was one of the first we thought of.

I loved this book as a child!
I read this book as a child, and now that I am raising three crazy toddlers (ages 2, 4, and 5!), I knew this would be a good book for them to read to teach them about not being selfish. This is a fun book about a little pig who wants to be first for everything: first on the slide, first on the bus, first for lunch, etc. He soon learns that it is not always good to be selfish. A great story for any age. My girls are always having me read it!

Good lesson to learn
I loved this book as a kid and was glad to find it for my own kids who tend to argue over who goes first! Good lesson to learn!

Meiner Tochter 24 Kindheitsliebling!
Meine Tochter hatte dieses Buch als 4 Jährige in Neuseeland kennengelenrt und wünschte es sich immer mal wieder - nun fand ich es auf Amazon. Es ist eine so rührende und weise Geschichte über den positiven Umgang mit schwierigen Eigenarten - nicht nur für Kinder!

A fantastic story with a clear message
I was having some problems with children in my Reception class pushing to get to the front of the line all the time, when I remembered my daughter having this book some 15 years ago. I ordered the book and after reading the story to them a couple of times a quick reminder of 'remember Pinkerton?'is enough to get them all standing beautifully ready to go! This is an excellent story with a clear message for young children of what 'might' happen if they insist on always being first. Adding the voice of the 'sand witch' keeps them all entranced. A truly lovely book that I loved reading to my daughter and now enjoy reading to my class!

Fantastic story
Fab book, bought to help my son understand that he doesn’t always have to be first. We found out about this book on YouTube and I searched everywhere for it and found it here. It arrived perfect and in the condition stated so very happy. The story itself is great and loved by all my kids
