Critics Review

“Costello’s winsome tale explores the travails of being the youngest and the littlest.”–Kirkus Reviews“Costello isn’t pioneering new ground with this story of how a family’s littlest member asserts his competence, but the combination of lovely and understated text, sly watercolors, and a protagonist who knows in his heart that he’s right make the premise feel fresh and funny.”–Publishers Weekly“An uplifting tale with a gentle lesson about how even the smallest member of the band has something to contribute.”–Shelf Awareness“Young readers will likely recognize Little Pig’s predicament and give his take-charge solution a big hand.”–The Horn Book Magazine
