SUMMARY: This book is about a little boy named Peter, who wants a pet pig that is "a good little bad little pig". His parents at first are worried what this means, but they let him get the pig anyways. After he has the pig for some time, and it keeps messing up, Peter explains what he means. Not everyone can be good or bad all the time, and neither can his little piglet, so by calling her the good little bad little pig, it means she is both good and bad. This is a great book to teach children that while sometimes it is hard to be good all the time, they need to try their hardest, and no one would be upset if they were bad sometimes because accidents happen.
