Pippin the Christmas Pig
by Jean Little
Illustrated by Werner Zimmermann

All the animals in the barn are talking about Christmas — and how their great-great-great-grandparents helped one special child in a stable, so long ago. But young Pippin has no stories, for none of her relatives were there. "Face it, Pippin," the others tell her. "Pigs are not worthy." And so begins Pippin's journey, all alone on another winter night… a journey that shows the other animals just how special Pippin is.

A heartwarming story of hope, wonder and the true Christmas spirit.
