A splendid book for infants and destined to become a classic, I suspect. Little Pig's attempts to fulfil his grandiose plans to make a present for his mum's birthday will bring an affectionate smile to any adult who's dealt with the disappointment of children attempting something beyond their materials and abilities. The children, too, were really involved in his trials. Little Pig does find a lovely present at the thoroughly satisfying end of this large-format, high-quality picture book.
