The Royal Dragonfly Awards 1st Place Winner in the Children's Chapter Book category takes readers to the island nation of Pigonia, where we learn how young Spencer Hoggbottom, Esquire, became the famous Sir Pigglesworth! A colony of royal pigs lived peacefully in the Atlantic Ocean for over 200 years. Suddenly, little piglets were getting pig-napped, and the scurvy pirates led by the infamous Captain Phineas Nastybeard were seen coming ashore from pirate ships. The pigs of Pigonia had no way to protect themselves until Admiral Cornelius Snout and Reginald Hoggbottom of New York led a heroic rescue mission! Spencer, AKA Sir Pigglesworth, was born in Pigonia a year later. The little pig lived a happy life of playing with friends and playing pranks for over 5 years ... until Spencer and his friends spotted the Jolly Roger pirate flag coming over the horizon. Nastybeard, Peg Leg McGee, and the rest of the pirate horde arrive in the cove, looking for more piglets to kidnap. Armed with only the usual pig "weapons", like mud-balls, tomatoes, potatoes, and rubber bullets, can Admiral Snout, Spencer, and the royal pigs save the piglets and defeat the nasty pirates ...?! The Sir Pigglesworth Adventure Series has quickly become a favorite of teachers, parents, and grandparents for teaching kids about geography and cultures, and kids can't get enough of the funny pig and his crazy adventures. Next stop... beautiful sandy beaches and luxury in Sir Pigglesworth's Adventures in Bermuda!
JoAnn Wagner was born in New York in 1951 and grew up outside New York City. She spent 20 years upstate in Kingston, NY, before moving to Mesquite, TX, a suburb of Dallas, in 1986. She recently retired, having worked for 25 years at the University of Texas Southwestern Medical Center in Dallas. Her hobbies include kickboxing, reading, cruising, yoga, and writing. JoAnn is married, and she and her husband have five wonderful children and six beautiful, rambunctious grandchildren. The "Sir Pigglesworth's Adventure Series" was born when JoAnn's church gave out a flying pig stress ball for the congregation to take around over the summer and post pictures on Facebook. People smiled and laughed everywhere she went and were excited to have their photo taken with Sir Pigglesworth, as she dubbed the pig. The idea blossomed until it became clear that Sir Pigglesworth's adventures needed to be shared with children worldwide. JoAnn does book readings at schools, libraries, and churches. Since kids like to get "stuff," JoAnn gives them custom-made Sir Pigglesworth bookmarks written in English on one side and Spanish on the other.Great, affordable gift for kids!
