«Little Pig Figwort» is the illustrated children's story by Henrietta Branford, published by HarperCollinsChildren’sBooks in paperback (32 pages, in English).
Little Pig Figwort can't sleep and goes out to find someone to play with. He dives to the bottom of the ocean and travels to the North Pole, but everyone there is asleep; then he boards his rocket to the Moon, where lunar pigs play Pig Pirates and Moon Jump all night. After the adventure, the little pig finally falls asleep.
The cover shows the piglet in an astronaut suit before a crescent moon. The book was published in 2001, with illustrations by Claudio Muñoz.
Recommended for children aged 4 to 7, especially for those looking for fun bedtime stories and imaginary journeys.
