«The Pig in the Pond» is a children's picture book by Martin Waddell, published by Walker Books in hardcover (32 pages, in English).
On a hot day, the pig at Neligan's farm watches ducks and geese cool off in the pond. Although pigs don't swim, the heat encourages her to take a dip, and she discovers she's not the only one seeking relief. The repetitive, sonorous narrative, with illustrations by Jill Barton, works very well aloud.
It belongs to the Little Favourites series, made up of four titles; this New Ed edition was published in 2004.
Recommended for children aged 2 to 6, especially as shared reading aloud.
Martin Waddell is a writer of children's books from Belfast, Northern Ireland. He may be known best for his picture book texts featuring anthropomorphic animals, especially the Little Bear series illustrated by Barbara Firth.
