Product Description SOW BELLY AND THE THIEF is as suspensefully crafted and vividly illustrated as its whimsical predecessor, SOW BELLY AND THE STRANGER, an adroit blend of humor, mystery and adventure, with a poignant variety of unique and eccentric farm-yard characters. SOW BELLY AND THE THIEF comprises an exciting tale of search and rescue, of charity and courage and co-operation as Sow Belly, an affable pig, undertakes a mission with her farm-animal friends to locate the source of a mysterious "voice" that desperately pleads for help in a nearby forest, and Sow Belly and her friends resolve to save a fellow creature from terrible danger. As inspiring as it is enchanting, SOW BELLY AND THE THIEF will intrigue, mesmerize and entertain children of many different ages and even adults, with irresistible wonder and delight.
