A cute, simple story about sharing and gift-giving.

The story gets a little weird when Thomas delivers the presents for the piglets first, instead of the straw that the farmer actually asked for, but it all works out in the end. There’s maybe a lesson in priorities or something in here, but in a book with such a short length and simple structure, it doesn’t really come across.

Overall, a good story, especially for a Step 2 book.
