It's a Big World, Little Pig!

(4) K-3 Illustrated by Tim Bowers. Ice-skating pig Poppy is nervous to participate in the World Games, but her parents and friends remind her that "everyone smiles in the same language." Evidently they all speak English, too--she makes friends with animal athletes from different countries and relates to each one. The story is bland, but the cartoony illustrations of the international animals are lively and animated.
