Product description

Young readers will squeal with laughter at this sprightly tale of friendship and working together, starring a pig who has his aims set high! Bounce, bounce, bounce! Ping Pong Pig loves to leap and jump all over Apple Tree Farm, hoping that one day he’ll learn how to fly. He is far too busy having fun to help with the chores – and what’s more, he leaves a lot of mess behind him. Can his friends find a way to make his dreams come true? And will he learn to help them in return?

“The well-worn theme of following a dream is complemented with a stronger theme of friendship and returning a kindness for a kindness.” Donna Cardon, Provo City Library, UT
