* An excellent, gently told addition to anti-bullying, adoption, and
individuality storytimes.--Kirkus Reviews, starred review
There was a different sort of piglet in the pigpen one cool spring
morning.
That different one is named Penny, and she's really not a piglet at all
. . . she's a puppy. A puppy who gets longer and longer as her piglet
siblings get bigger and bigger. Penny doesn't understand why she's
different--she only knows that Mama Pig loves her just the same as the
rest of the litter. Penny's siblings are baffled by her peculiar
behavior--like digging with her paws instead of her snout, and
especially her loud, sharp oink. Good thing Penny likes all the sounds
she can make, and when danger strikes and her peculiarities prove to be
strengths, the piglets see that sometimes it's good to be a little
different!
