Reviews:
"Readers will certainly empathize with Pig and his emotions." -- Kirkus Reviews "Hunter's picture book will draw its audience with vibrant colors, oh-so-adorable characters, and plenty of silliness...Pig's struggle serves as a clear, approachable introduction to anxiety and imposter syndrome that may come in handy for older readers as much as little ones...This is certain to please at storytime or more intimate readings, and it may result in a fair share of great parties." -- Bulletin of the Center for Children's Books "The comic poses and vibrant colors add much-needed levity to this important story about fear, anxiety, and friendship. Young readers will learn that being afraid is a common, temporary feeling, and that they can talk to others about it. A necessary and powerful lesson for children, accompanied by expressive, funny scenes." -- School Library Journal
