Back for a 3rd adventure! Our beloved Parmesan Pig sets out to explore her love for science. Along the way, she helps a friend find a new perspective and gain self-confidence.
Book Synopsis
The Parmesan Pig Books Series once again tells a story with social-emotional learning (SEL) themes at its core. In Book 1, characters overcame challenging emotions and found their inner HAPPY with the support of a mindful friend. In Book 2, Parmesan Pig had the social awareness to appreciate and support the NEEDS and WANTS of others. Book 3 explores a theme of perspective. Characters new and old will discover that BIG vs. SMALL all depends on one's point of view.
Meet Sandwich Seagull, with a birds-eye view, and Cookie Cricket, an expert at math. Both characters use the world around them to educate a very curious Parmesan Pig and her sweetest friend Chocolate Chipmunk. Additionally, the lessons effectively help anxious characters gain confidence and self-assurance.
"Sandwich Seagull inspired
With all of these facts.
He is as full of perspective,
As his mouth is with snacks."

Review Quotes
"I enjoyed reading Parmesan Pig: Small, Big, and Beyond by Ben Barrowman. I know my children would have wanted to have the book read to them over and over when they were that age. The author wants to go beyond entertaining his readers to inspire a love for science and our world. As the pig and her friends, including her best friend Chocolate Chipmunk, learn about the physical world, they discover information that helps them increase their self-confidence to become comfortable with who they are. The illustrations by Alexis Eastburn are eye-catching and creative, and perfectly fit the book's text. I highly recommend this book to children, their parents, and their grandparents." - 5 STAR REVIEW from Readers' Favorite
