Alice's Birthday Pig

(3) 1-3 Illustrated by Mike Spoor. On a class field trip to a farm, seven-year-old Alice falls in love with a piggie. She asks for the pig as a birthday present, but her wise parents instead surprise her with a guinea pig. The story contends with typical family and sibling issues (e.g., Alice's brother teases her whenever she says aminal). Black-and-white illustrations keep things light.
