This is a wonderful story for children, filled with love and thinking of others before ourselves, a valuable lesson. I like the way the other animals' gifts came together to make one for super pig. The picture is great, too!

    Oh Thank you so much Sissy. I'm so glad you like my stories. It means more to me when kids say they like them than when an adult does, because after all I write them for kids. When I get my book published I will send you one for helping me. Thank you so much. Love, Super Pig. (Roxanna)

    Hi Roxanna! I told sissy you might reply so when your reply popped up I let her open it. She got the biggest smile and said, "Oh super pig too!" The only word she got hung up on was bouquet, still a good word for her to learn. She read your chapter out loud and it was priceless. So we found the 10 chapters and want to know if we should pick the 8 we like the best? Is that what you mean about the 8? This worked out perfect because she forgot her reading book at school so she got her reading time in on your chapter. Plus when I told her she could review it and explained the star system she totally wanted to do it. I thought, now there's a novel idea, let the kids review chapters. An online reading experience interactive. Just like here only for kids.
    She liked your pictures of super pig too!
    So fun for us.

    It was so cute to read her review. The ones by kids always mean the most to me. A lady I worked with brought her granddaughter to work one day and when she told her I wrote Super Pig, that's all she wanted to talk about. I didn't get it at first, I didn't expect her to be so excited about it. I kept changing the subject trying to talk to her about her visit with grandma and what they were doing, but she kept going back to Super Pig. It finally dawned on me that she was very excited to meet me. My friend said, "you did not get at all that she was excited to meet you did you?" NO. She stuck to me like glue the whole day. It was the biggest boost to my confidence and review I have ever gotten and I get that same feeling from Sissy. Its just so sweet.

    Yes if she could pick out 8 stories from the 10 that she likes the best it would really help me choose which ones to put in the book, and as a reward I will name a character after her in my next book. I will start posting those stories soon so she can see her name in one. Thank you so much for doing this for me, means A LOT. Love to you both, rox

Roxanne,

Very sweet story. A good example for children to read and learn from. I found one small error, and it might not be an error--it might just be a unique syntax.

Mr. Farmer gave her a beaming smile and produced [a] red velvet, heart shaped box

Good job.

This is a cute story. I am glad you shared it. It would make a great story for children. It certainly has a lot of love in it even if it isn't a romance story. I enjoyed reading it.

I like to read children's stories when I go to bed at night. They are such sweet stories, and they relax me enough to go to sleep.

I have no suggestions that would make this any better.

    Thanks so much April. I decided it was time to get back to writing my kids stories, it's my main thing and I got a bit discourage with it when it didn't work out to get my next book published, but it's what I love. Thanks again.

Aw no, I think this is really romantic. It certainly captures the essence of the day.

Great story for young and old. The idea of everybody working together should be embraced by more people, to make life happier

Aw, this is so special, and such a nice treat for Super Pig. She really is a super pig! I love your message about Valentine's Day in this and think it is a story children are sure to love. As you so aptly put it at the end, the very best gift of all was their friendship.

Freddy Billy Goat gave Erica Ewe - I liked Gabriel Gosling and Erica Ewe, but I thought it was also great that not all names began with the same letter. All of them like that would have been too much, I think!

Great closing- I like how you closed it with a moral, a good one, that was demonstrated through the whole story. This is a wonderful children's book. I would read it to my kids, and that's a compliment!

    Thanks so much, All of the names are friends of mine and their children and grandchildren. I'm so glad some share the same name or I'd have to have 100 characters. =} I will take that last remake as high praise. Thanks so much again.
