Read this to my 5 year old daughter last night. Very cute and funny story. Chester first tries to find a purpose to not end up on the dinner plate. After his attempt fail he figures he will just be the best bacon/ham/pork he can be and eat and eats. I dont want to give away the ending but I found it surprising and fun. I would love to add this to our own collection.
This is one of my favorite Bill Peet books! His books are timeless!
Chester has his heart set on being a star performer in the circus. Will standin on his snout be a good enough trick to make his wish come true? - from the back cover.
fun book for young children
