Hogbert

Author: Briony May Smith

Format: Hardcover

Recommended for ages 3+

Hogbert is a baby boar with a big personality and a truly remarkable nose. He lives in a fairy-tale forest with Mummy Pig and his brothers and sisters, and when the little ones head out on their own for the first time, they're warned to stick together in case the Big Bad Wolf is about.

But when Hogbert sniffs out a tempting trail, he wanders off alone — and meets a cast of new animal friends that sharp-eyed readers may recognise from favourite fairy tales. A warmly illustrated tale about making friends, taking first steps towards independence and learning to trust your instincts.
