Grunting Pig Puppet
Spring 2014 ToysReview:
Could this be Wilbur from Charlotte's Web? . An unusual and playfully realistic grunting sound may answer that question. . The literature connections can easily be established, and the factual details (several of which are included with the puppet) may be used as a starting point for many conversations. The hand pocket on this precious porcine puppet has finger openings for each of the front legs, plus two more for manipulating the pig's upper and lower jaws. The outer fabric (gray spots on a pink base) is soft and cuddle worthy.
