Norbert's Big Dream

(3) K-3 Illustrated by Marco Bucci. Pig Norbert is in training (he practices flutter kicks in the mud, etc.) to swim the English Channel. Alas, he has overlooked one detail: he doesn't know where the English Channel is located. A tale of personal perseverance, complete with terrific illustrations of the supremely unbuff Norbert working out, becomes one of community spirit when his animal friends create "Norbert's Channel"--locally.
