Hambone is a normal, little pig who loves to wallow in mud, gobble corn cobs and play with his brother and sister on Farmer Brown's acreage. But Hambone has a dream - he wants a dill pickle - a big, green, drippy, sour dill pickle. His dream is so compelling that Hambone leaves home to chase it. He meets with many colourful characters on his adventure, including a parrot, a chef and a really big elephant until at last - his dream comes true. But something unexpected happens to his tail as his dream becomes reality! Hambone's little tale teaches us that you really can believe in your dreams!
Jackie Arnason Knihy
Jackie Arnasonová, vyrastajúca na prériách Saskatchewanu, našla útočisko v knižnici už od detstva. Od útleho veku si vymýšľala príbehy pre svojich súrodencov a tento dar rozprávania si preniesla aj do dospelosti. Jej rozprávky o zvieratkách a magickom svete, ktoré rozprávala svojim deťom a vnúčatám, mali imaginatívnu silu a odovzdávali jemné životné lekcie. Aj v pokročilom veku Jackie naďalej očaruje svoje okolie láskavými a radostnými príbehmi, v ktorých zdieľa svoju neutíchajúcu fantáziu a múdrosť.
