One day, during a parade, the sash worn by the ‘Pickle Princess’
blows off and wafts its way across the farm, landing on Pig. Pig decides she
must be a princess. Pony doesn’t believe it, but the other barnyard animals do,
and start to treat her like a princess, giving her pretty princess pies,
decadent bubble baths, fluffy pillows and singing her to sleep. Pig is in
heaven!
But – wait. She discovers that princesses aren’t allowed to sleep
late, roll in the mud, or attend barn parties attended by the common folk. She
decides that Pony may have been right when he said, “It’s a fine thing to be a
pig, if a pig is what you are.”
This is a delightful book for children 5 and up.
