A piglet called Truffle  Cover Image Book Book

A piglet called Truffle / Helen Peters ; illustrated by Ellie Snowdon.

Summary:

Jasmine's dad is a farmer, and her mom is a large-animal vet, so Jasmine spends a lot of time caring for animals and keeping them out of trouble. Unfortunately, this often means she gets into hot water herself. Jasmine rescues a tiny little piglet from certain death. But Jasmine's parents don't believe in farm animals being pets and insist that Truffle must be sold as soon as she's big enough. So Jasmine begins a campaign to keep her pig, one that doesn't seem to be going very well as Truffle gets older and ever closer to market. In the end, it takes two lost guinea pigs and one cold, frosty, nighttime adventure to save Truffle's bacon.
