"I’ve heard it said that pigs can’t fly,
They never leave the ground.
But I have gazed up at the sky
And watched the flying pigs go by.
They never made a sound."

  About the book:

Here, flying pigs, a bagpipe-playing frog, a juggling mouse, a penguin on a bike and more join together in a whimsical collection of rhymes and exquisite art that will open minds and tickle the reader’s imagination.

Brimming with humour and joy, Pigs Can't Fly is a gift of a book from a brilliant mind, and an open-ended invitation to make the impossible possible!
