by Jan L. Coates (Author) and Suzanne Del Rizzo (Illustrator)

Booktalk: The tale of a pig who wants–against all popular truisms–to fly. He may never reach the sky on homemade clockwork wings, but Ollie still dreams as hard as ever a pig can dream. And Jack, a true friend, realizes that just because a pig can’t fly in the ways they have tried doesn’t mean he can never soar.
