Book excerpt: A bilingual read-along book for children ages 4-9 this story tells of a timid piglet who uses his powerful snout to become a soccer star (in Chinese with pinyin pronunciation guides; retold in English). When this talent does not save him from being sent to the market, he escapes into the woods. Years later, at a family gathering at the old farm, he becomes a hero when he saves a small child. Reunited with his old friends, he observes modestly that of course friends help each other, so why are they fussing over him? Written in the style of a Chinese fable, this original story is built on the timeless themes of friendship and loyalty, and follows the read-along tradition of Kipling's Just So Stories, accompanied by lush color pencil-and-watercolor illustrations.
