We picked this one out at the library mostly because of the cover and the title. It looks and sounds like a really cute and adorable story. I am really glad we read it because Piglet and Mama is a pretty cute story.
 In this book, Piglet cannot find Mama, so she searches the farmyard for her. She sees a lot of other farmyard animals, they tell her that Mama isn't here and try to comfort her. But Piglet only wants to find Mama. I love that it reminds me of Are You My Mother.  I think one of my favorite things about this book are the illustrations. They are lovely and fantastic.
We really enjoyed reading Piglet and Mama and definitely recommend giving it a read!
