    About Captain Small Pig

    A charming story of family and a day on the water.

    Out on Blue Lake with his parents Old Goat and Turkey, Small Pig is ready for an adventure.

    “I’m Captain Commander!” Small Pig said.
    “Aye aye, Captain Small Pig!” yawned Old Goat. “You are in charge of this boat!”

    But Small Pig soon tires of rowing and falls asleep. Before they know it, the boat is drifting across the lake, and grumpy Turkey is in for a soaking!

    Martin Waddell’s quirky tale and charming characters, coupled with Susan Varley’s evocative illustrations, makes for a gentle, delightful story filled with quiet adventure.
