Reviews

[Gail Oliver · Rating 4 out of 5]

Little Henry, a piglet, introduces us to his limited world.
Once he’s given an opportunity to explore beyond his gate, we meet the other animals.
This is a clever method to introduce children to other animals as the piglet describes the appearance and sound of each animal.
In the end, piglet realizes his home is good, too.

Utterly charming story about personal perspective. Always a favorite of my own children and my students.
