Dream Big Little Pig!

(4) K-3 Illustrated by Tim Bowers. Olympic figure skater Yamaguchi tells of a pig named Poppy who "dreamed big." Although ballet dancing, singing, and modeling don't work out, Poppy, with the encouragement of her family and best friend, perseveres and becomes an ice skater. Message is foremost in this unsurprising story. Some humorous piggy wordplay ("New Pork City") and cheery pink-hued cartoon illustrations may engage readers.
