I love this book! It tells the sweet and funny tale of a very different little pig who just wants to find a forever home with like-minded people. Filled with messages of acceptance, diversity, community, and kindness, this story shows how even a little pig can capitalize on his strengths.

Description
"Jasper the Business Pig makes the sale with silliness and charm." --Kirkus Jasper would rather draw graphs than play in the mud. Can this cutie pig find someone to adopt him who means business, too? Right from the start, everyone at the barnyard could tell Jasper wasn't like his siblings: "I believe what we have here is a gen-u-WINE Business Pig " No wallowing in the mud or rooting for grubs for Jasper; he'd rather help with the bookkeeping or conduct a meeting. Though everyone at the animal sanctuary loves him, Jasper longs for a forever home. But no matter how many business cards he hands out, no one wants to adopt him. Can this above-average pig find his special person to cut deals with?
