CBZ review for Pig and Small--Friends come in all shapes and sizes. Pig found friendship in a not so predictable place with a very small friend, a bug. They do lots of fun things together like play chess, see a movie, go to the zoo. And they discover lots of things they don't like doing too like playing ball and hide and seek. In the end these two find out they are the perfect blend-ship for a friendship and size doesn't matter at all. Pig And Small by Alex Latimer was a cute book that also carried a life lesson. Pig and Bug meet when Pig sees Bug sitting on the end of his nose, squeaking. Pig is relieved when he see this because he was afraid there was something wrong with his nose. Pig knew his nose had never squeaked before and thought it might be diseased. Finding Bug making all the racket was a relief to Pig and the two tried to become friends. They tried doing activities they both enjoyed (tandem bike riding and playing chess) but those activities didn’t work out very well. They finally found something they could do together (watching a movie) and then they found other things they enjoyed doing together.The lessons learned were that although people may look different there are still things that they have in common. And you can be friends with others that are different than you. While reading this to my five year old granddaughter, she was asking me questions and worrying that they couldn’t be friends. This gave me the perfect opportunity to talk to her about these things. She was learning a life lesson while she was enjoyed listening to a story read to her. What more could I ask for from a book!The words were easy for her to understand and the illustrations were quite cute. I would recommend this book to anyone looking for an entertaining book, with lessons to be learned, to read to their child.
A sweet look at how differences can strengthen, not weaken, friendships.
