Each book in this series for young children takes the reader on a visit to a real working farm. This visit to a pig farm near Chichester, Sussex, shows how the farmer and his helpers raise and look after their pigs. It explains how the pigs are cared for outdoors in the fields and indoors in special conditions. The book describes the daily activities on the farm, such as feeding, breeding, weaning the piglets, giving health checks and fattening pigs for the market. Diana Bentley is author of the "My School" series.
