Book Review: A Big Guy Took My Ball by Mo Willems

A Big Guy Took My Ball is the new easy reader in the Elephant and Piggie series by Mo Willems. Everyone's favorite elephant Gerald worries for himself and his best friend, the ever cheerful Piggie. When Piggie comes to Gerald sad and upset because someone bigger than him took his ball, Gerald is determined to help his friend. After all, Who could be bigger than an elephant?

A Big Guy Took My Ball is a great easy reader about friendship, and looking past size to the heart of things. In true Willems style the story is funny, and still imparts a message that is sweet and important. I highly recommend it to everyone in search for good easy reader books for the kids in their lives. But, then again, I think everyone should have stopped reading the review as soon as they saw there was a new book by Mo Willems and just went out to find a copy.
