Father Goose

JULY 11TH, 2009

Father Goose

This little piggy made bacon
And this little piggy made ham
This little piggy made pork chops
And this little piggy made Spam

Cooking lessons aside, this little ditty is from the clever new book of rhymes for children, Brussels Sprouts and Unicorns by Vancouver beat poet/illustrator Robert Chaplin.

Like a twisted Mother Goose and in the vein of Alligator Pie, Chaplin's colourful language and pictures will charm both parent and child.

And possibly breed a whole new generation of vegetarians.
