Publisher Description: "A petite, polite pig, especially one with startling large blue eyes, will have a difficult time of it, no doubt you can sympathize." Exquisitely illustrated, the tongue-in-cheek wit of "Blue-Eyed Runt" targets readers ages 7-12, although all ages will enjoy listening to the contemporary fable of Sarah the blue-eyed piglet. Young listeners will be drawn to the cadence of the rhyming narrative, and older readers will be amused and enlightened by the subtleties of phrase and vocabulary. All will be charmed by the delightful artwork that accompanies the message-rich text. The story offers an entertaining and memorable pathway to exploring behavioral topics, such as: bullying, self-confidence, introspection, acceptance and civility. |
