Luckily she meets Deer, Sheep and Crow along the way, who all join in the hunt to find the hog in the fog. A heartwarming rhyming adventure story about friendship, teamwork and teatime!

Copus tells the tale in easy, breezy aabb rhyme that bounces rhythmically along, with each character's movements given a distinct, appropriate sound in perfect sync with the cadence. Seo's bright, inventive illustrations complement the action beautifully, convey Lil's every emotion, and are filled with unexpected and delightful details...Little readers will want to enjoy it again and again."
