(4) K-3 Illustrated by R. W. Alley. Little Flower, a pampered and loved potbellied pig, becomes an unlikely heroine when she uses her wiles, without so much as an oink, to get help after her elderly owner, Miss Pearl, falls in her house and hurts her hip. Unfortunately, the story, based on a true tale, peters out thereafter. Detailed illustrations depict a lively suburban neighborhood that grows to love the titular swine.
Reviewer: Sheila M. Geraty
