In A Present for Toot, Puddle has a hard time selecting a gift for Toot's birthday and finally selects something exotic and friendly. Again young listeners will be surprised at what makes a good birthday gift and will learn that sometimes it is just best to use one's one judgment when selecting a birthday gift.

Hachette Audio has produced four delightful, downloadable audios of Holly Hobbie books about two endearing pigs who show that, just like us, pigs have different personalities and interests. Each book is a good opportunity to introduce young children to the art of listening to a professional reader give his/her stamp on a story.

Julia Costa and Nick Sullivan both provide readings that will hold the young reader's attention and allow the reader to see that pigs are different-just like us. The four books are Toot & Puddle, Top of the World, You Are My Sunshine and A Present for Toot.
