About This Book
Reach for this book when your child is facing a setback or working hard toward a long-term goal. It is a perfect choice for teaching the value of perseverance and the power of creative problem-solving when things do not go as planned. Pinky Pig works at a restaurant to save money for a new clarinet after a silly accident ruins her old one. When business at the diner drops and her job is at risk, Pinky uses her imagination to create a menu that appeals to all the different animals in town. The rhyming text and gentle watercolor art make it a soothing yet motivating read for children ages 4 to 8. It effectively models how a positive attitude and a bit of ingenuity can turn a difficult situation into a triumph.
What Parents Should Know
Sensitive Topics
The book is entirely secular and metaphorical. While there is a brief moment of financial stress (the threat of a business closing), the resolution is hopeful and focuses on agency and effort.
