This is a charming story of bravery and determination, of setting out to do something new,

of being determined to have a go. The repetition in the first section where he is frightened

by the farm animals will please younger readers and encourage them to predict and read

along with the increasingly familiar words. This repetition occurs again as Pink Piglet adds

to his finery, and again as he reruns home.

Sarah Davis' artwork will thrill younger readers as they recognise the farm animals and the

antics they get up to, sympathising with Pink Piglet's attempts at independence and the

safety of his loving mother waiting at home.

This is a delightful read a loud story for younger readers, one that will encourage them to

think about how brave they can be in attempting something new. - ReadPlus on BE BRAVE, PINK PIGLET
