Product Review: Dream Big, Little Pig! [Hardcover] (Age 4+)
Dream Big and Never Lose Sight of Your Goals
If you want to inspire your child (especially during the current Olympics!), read them the story of Poppy the Pig. Poppy wants to be a star. She tried her talents in many different areas, like singing, but she just was not that great at each one. Poppy would not give up her determined but positive attitude to find her dreams and her friends and family continued their unwavering support. It wasn’t until Poppy discovers the ice skating rink that she also finds her passion. She wants to improve and she wants to get better. Poppy invests the time into her newfound love of ice skating and she finds success. As the book says, a little pig’s dreams can never be too big, and Poppy found that with hard work and not giving up you can reach your dreams. What a positive message, especially for little girls!
I just had to say it…..anyone else think it is funny that the Momma’s Bacon blog is doing a review post about a pig? So fitting!
