From a newborn piglet to a one-and-a-half-year-old Mama pig, this simple children's book shows kids the life of a pig in real pictures. It is fun to read and fun to look at the pictures. And kids love the stickers that come with it, too!

Very simple text to help readers learn how the penguin changes from when it is born to when it becomes an adult. It is a short story, but done in a way that younger readers will be able to see with the pictures that are used and the visual at the very end of the story.

It is a very short book in terms of pages but it is useful for children to know animals and pigs.
