In a charming tale of community spirit, a group of industrious pigs build a home and plant a garden. As seasons change, they work together, helping neighbors and gathering a bountiful harvest.

From the publisher

Susan Gal offers a heartwarming tale of old-fashioned goodness. The industrious pigs of Day by Day build a home, plant a garden, help their neighbors, and then gather in a harvest grown with hard work and kindness.

The language is sweet and simple: Day by day, the seasons turn. Shoulder to shoulder, pigs gather the harvest. Hand in hand, pigs give thanks, then cheek to cheek, they dance. The artwork is bright and full of the merry antics of a

happy family and a tight-knit community. And these pigs are flat out adorable!

This delightful story celebrates family and community, caring and sharing.
