Ever wanted to fly? This pig spends all day trying, while all the other animals are hard at work on the farm. They keep telling him that Pigs can’t fly, but he just keeps trying, and makes BIG messes in the process. The other animals decide something has to be done to keep him out of the way. They give him a special gift to keep him occupied – a trampoline. Ping Pong Pig is so happy with their gift that he decides to help out all the other animals. Just when they think he’s got this flying thing out of his head he performs a triumphant finale jump, shouting “Pigs CAN fly!”

Another funny book about a pig who wants to fly is Today I Will Fly from the Elephant and Piggie series by Mo Willems. Check that one out too!
