Bookroo's summary

Hamlet, a young pig with a passion for poetry, feels overlooked by his family, who care more about supper than his verses. Disheartened, he ventures into the night woods, clutching his book of poems. There, amidst the shadows, Hamlet stumbles upon an unexpected and wondrous discovery that changes everything. What will he find in the heart of the forest that could be so grand and terrific? Join Hamlet on his journey to uncover the magic that awaits beyond the familiar comforts of home.

From the publisher

When you are little and you’ve learned to read, and you’ve learned to write a poem all by yourself, you’d like someone big to put his arm around you and say, Wow! Wonderful! You are terrific! Hamlet’s pig family is more interested in supper than poetry. Sadly, he wanders off into the night woods with his book and his poems. And there Hamlet finds something powerfully surprising. Something good and grand and terrific.
