PIGGYPINE

Peter Jarvis Richard T. Morris

Piggypine follows a mixed up little creature who's looking for his story. Where did he come from? How did he get here? And what on earth IS HE? A pig? A porcupine? A little bit of both? Through persistence and believing in himself, Piggypine ultimately finds his story and a way into this world. This is a picture book about how ideas can become stories and how sometimes the craziest ones can become our most magical.

Richard T. Morris is the author of This Is a Moose, illustrated by Tom Lichtenheld (Little Brown, 2014) and Bye-Bye, Baby!, illustrated by Larry Day (Walker, 2009).
