What is The Princess and the Pig about?

Princess Alice finds a small, muddy pig trapped in a puddle outside Grey Stone Castle. She carries him inside, but soon her dress—and the castle—are in a muddle.

With playful royal characters, a touch of magic and plenty of muddy mischief, this gentle story invites young readers to discover what happens when a princess rescues an unusual visitor.
