A Pig Called Lollipop by Dick King-Smith

“The master of animal adventures” Independent on Sunday Two funny adventures about a spoiled princess and a very clever royal pig, from the beloved author of Babe. Lollipop is no ordinary pig. According to her young owner Johnny Skinner, she's the cleverest pig in the whole kingdom. When people stare into Lollipop's bright, intelligent eyes, it seems to change them for the better. But will Lollipop win over spoiled Princess Penelope – and the King and Queen? With exciting new illustrations, these two timeless and hilarious stories are being published to celebrate treasured author Dick King-Smith's centenary! "Dick King-Smith is a huge favourite with children" Observer

Dick King-Smith, a former dairy farmer, is one of the world's favourite children's book authors. He won the Guardian Children's Fiction Prize for The Sheep-pig (filmed as Babe) and was named Children's Book Author of the Year in 1991. He is also the author of Walker's much-loved Sophie series. He said of these books: "Each time I sit down to write an animal story, I say to myself, 'What sort of animal?' and I answer, 'Pig!' Then I say, 'No, no, you've just done a pig story.' So I have to wait. And then along came Lady Lollipop!" 2022 celebrates a hundred years since Dick King-Smith's birth.
Anna Chernyshova graduated from Cambridge School of Art's MA in Children's Book Illustration in 2015.
