An amusing and well-written book intended for early readers, comprising six short chapters featuring two young pigs called Fred and Flo. Their mother reminds them regularly that they should always be helpful and kind, and the two really do try hard...

I read the entire book aloud to my three-year-old grandson at one sitting. The text is large, since it’s designed for young children to read to themselves, but the flow of writing is good. Although the dialogue is simple, it’s enjoyable to show more read aloud, and there were some lively chuckles from my grandson in several places.

All in all, I was pleasantly surprised by this book, which could appeal to children up to the ages of about six or seven or even beyond.
