My husband would be the first to tell you that I love all things about pigs. I grew up on a farm 

raising pigs. I had a collection ofpig figurines, I have stuffed pigs.  So, when the opportunity to read and review this book came along I was all in.

This is an inspirational book. For any child who loves to do something, but has been told that they can't because of the way they look, walk, talk, etc., this is the book they need to read, or have read to them. 

Miz Peg is a short, chubby pig. she loves to dance and sing. She tries to jump and leap and always falls. She wishes she was like a bird and could  fly high.  Her friends always tell her that pigs can't fly, meaning that because she is short and chubby she can't sing and dance.. While walking in the woods she sees a couple of birds who encourage her. They tell her if she believes hard enough she can do anything. That little bit of belief in herself is all it takes to show her friends that she can sing and dance.  This is a lesson we need to teach all children young and old.  Awesome book that every parent and every teacher should read to their youngest child.
