Pete the Pig Gets Picked On

This is a very nice story about a pig called Pete who was different from the rest of the pigs. He had a very sensitive heart-shaped nose. All pigs teased him because of this and Pete felt cast out. To make things worst, Pete found that the owner of their farm was having financial problems. He tried to tell the other pigs of the problems they were facing but nobody believed him. When the farmer started to lose things from the farm the pigs finally believed Pete but got angry at him. Lonely Pete went to the forest where he could find peace. While there Pete found truffles with the power of his sensitive nose. He took them to his owner and helped him make money and save the farm. After this, all pigs stopped teasing Pete and accepted him in the pig community. This book has a very nice narrative with a great message of inclusion and self-confidence. The illustrations work nicely with the story. They are made traditionally and very clear and appealing for kids. I think this is a very lovely book and I recommend it.
