Illustrated by
Claudio Munoz.
Unable to sleep, Pig Figwort goes looking for fun, but everyone under the sea and at the North Pole wants to sleep, not play. Then Pig Figwort flies to the moon, where he frolics with wakeful moon pigs until he's ready for bed. Rich language makes this a good read-aloud, and the spirited illustrations, a combination of imaginative spreads and Olivia-style vignettes, bring Pig Figwort and his adventures to life.
