This book was one of my son's all-time favorites when he was a toddler. A little piglet is imaginatively "hidden" in a variety of areas that would typically be found on a farm. The reader joins the child illustrated in the book as she or he (the gender can't be determined by the illustration) searches in a hay stack, a chicken coop, and other fun places. There are no words in this brilliant story, just colorful, realistic pictures of farm items and animals. The piglet is hidden in each illustration and just enough of the darling animal is showing to allow your little reader to find it amongst the other items in the picture. I felt the book increased my toddler's attention to detail and boosted his self-confidence as time after time he found the hidden piglet. A real treasure of a book along with it's companion book, "Find the Kitten". I'd strongly recommend both as a fun parent-child reading activity.
