The Princess and the Pig

A baby pig and a baby princess accidentally exchange places in this funny tale. The pig is presumed to be the princess transformed by a disgruntled fairy and the princess is presumed to be the pig transformed by a beneficent fairy. Time goes by, however, and the farmer and his wife begin to realize that an exchange has been made and they set out to rectify matters.

The illustrations are bright and beautiful and funny to complement the text. My favorite parts were the little asides to the audience of readers about the absurd yet commonplace transformations that occur in fairy tales. Very fun.
