Description
This charming picture book celebrates all our differences while questioning the idea that there is only one way to be "normal."
Pip is a normal pig who does normal stuff: cooking, painting, and dreaming of what she'll be when she grows up.
But one day a new pig comes to school and starts pointing out all the ways in which Pip is different. Suddenly she doesn't like any of the same things she used to...the things that made her Pip.
A wonderful springboard for conversations with children, at home and in the classroom, about diversity and difference.

Reviews
"Steele communicates her message that "normal" is in the eye of the beholder without a whiff of preachiness. Her cartoon pigs, done in watercolor with assured, black outlines, are appealing, and any child who feels they stand out in any way will identify and feel empowered. Delightful and important."--Kirkus Reviews (starred review)
"Steele shows how powerful and comforting a wider perspective can be. The watercolor-and-ink cartooning combines a keen eye for domestic and school dynamics with a sweet goofiness that pulls readers through the story, until Pip emerges at the end a wiser and stronger pig."--Publishers Weekly (starred review)
