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! In the Atlantic Ocean, a colony of royal pigs lived peacefully 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! A year later, Spencer, AKA Sir Pigglesworth, was born in Pigonia, and the little pig lived a happy life of playing with friends and playing pranks for over 5 years... until Spencer and his friends spot the Jolly Roger pirate flag coming over the horizon and 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! About the award-winning author JoAnn Wagner. After being in the medical field for 35 years, JoAnn fast-tracked her retirement and became an author of children's books in 2014. Her journey as an author began when her pastor gave the church members a pink flying pig stress ball and asked them to post pictures on Facebook. People loved meeting Sir Pigglesworth and they smiled and laughed, telling her how adorable they thought he was. She started posting little quotes with the pig doing various fun things and soon her friends and her followers told her they and their kids were looking forward to seeing what Sir Pigglesworth was up to next...A STAR WAS BORN!
Autorenporträt
JoAnn Wagner was born in New York. She moved to Mesquite, TX, a suburb of Dallas, in 1986. After having worked for 25 years at the University of Texas Southwestern Medical Center in Dallas, JoAnn began an exciting new career - writing children's books! Her hobbies include writing, reading, cruising, yoga, and water aerobics. JoAnn is married, and between her and her husband they have 5 wonderful children and 6 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. Everywhere she went people smiled and laughed, and were excited to have their picture 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 around the world. JoAnn has done book readings at libraries, schools, day care centers and churches.
