Where Pigs Fly - by Marie Millotte (Paperback)

Book Synopsis

In the middle of the fjords live Leon, a young boy who dreams of adventure, and his pet sheep Chonchon, who is down-to-earth and curious. They live a quiet, peaceful life -- until one day, when they find a little pig with wings that has fallen from the sky. Far from its island, the pig needs help: it needs to reunite with its family as quickly as possible, or it'll miss the great migration of flying pigs!

Armed with their courage, Leon, Chonchon, and the flying pig must cross the mysterious forest full of legendary creatures, some of them more dangerous than others...

Will they make it to the island of flying pigs in time?
