Lovely rhymes with a fun surprise at the end

PIGS MIGHT FLY Brett Avison, illustrations Janine Dawson Five Mile Press

There's a problem on the farm. It's been raining for a week and the river is rising.

The animals need to be moved to higher ground but things get tricky when Ted and young Bryn get cut off from the road with a dog, a hen and too many piglets to fit in the microlight plane.

The solution is a little irresponsible (imagine piglets and rope) but it is emphasised that none of the pigs were scared or even cared. Lovely rhymes and there's a pop-up plane as a fun surprise at the end.

Ages 2-4.
