Pages rustled. Restless feet shuffled. Librarians bustled about. Just then, the library doors opened, and a gust of wind ushered in… a pig!
Meet Pio, a brave little pig on his very first solo trip to the library. With a library card dangling from his collar, Pio explores towering stacks of books and nosy nooks, feeling a bit lost along the way. But with a kind librarian’s guidance and the help of new friends, Pio discovers that there’s a perfect book for everyone – even a little pig like him!
Join Pio as he learns that every great journey begins with a single step (or in his case, a single page). This heartwarming tale encourages young readers to embrace their own adventures in reading, starting from A all the way to Z.
