12 Days of Christmas: Day 10: Concetta the Pig

Concetta the Pig's Secret to Happiness


On the tenth day of Christmas, Learning that's Fun gave to me, Concetta the Pig's Secret to Happiness by Lady Lini (Karolina). 


Karolina is a beautiful spirit from Country Victoria, using her art and creativity to share her messages with the world. Karolina's creations inspired the birth of Concetta the Pig, a not so pretty pig with a heart of gold. 

The inspiration for Concetta is to remind readers about some of the values that have been forgotten in our crazy world of materialism. It's about teaching children to be giving and sharing without expecting anything in return. It's about friendship and being kind to others, and is as much for adults as it is for children.

The first time I read the book, it brought a little tear to my eye. Concetta is a pig with little possession, but is always happy. She goes out of her way to make her friends happy and shows them that they don't need "things" to have a great life, they can make do with what they have if they just change their attitude a little.

Beautifully written in plain language, Concetta the Pig is a great book for kids of all ages to practice their reading and learn some incredible lessons from these characters. You might even get something out of it yourself.

Karolina plans to add more books to the Concetta Collection and introduce her other vibrant characters to the team.

Meet Concetta and her friends on the Sweet Dreams Enterprise Website. You can buy a copy of the book and a cute Pencil Topper there.
