My Thoughts: A retelling of The Frog Prince, but instead of a frog, a fairy gets confused and thinks it is a hog that is really the prince in disguise. All the hog has to do to become a prince is kiss his true love, or so the fairy thinks. This is a quaint retelling with a sweet ending, and the artwork is excellent.
