The Next Big Pigs

Heritage House Publishing spring 2026

Ten-year-old Mikey is a farm kid who doesn’t want to farm. He wants to perform! But as an only child living in an isolated location, he has no one to talk to, let alone perform for. Life is pretty lonely until the day Mikey’s parents give him three pigs to care for and raise.

​

As Mikey soon finds out, these are no ordinary pigs! Humphrey, Bianca, and Moo (yes, a pig named Moo) can talk! And dance! And put on show! Life on the farm transforms into a rehearsal space as Mikey and the pigs get ready for the big time—Broadway here they come!

'Charlotte's Web' was one of Charlotte's favourite reads as a kid for obvious reasons, and 'Wilbur' was her wrestling alias in high school.

She feels that it's very lucky and fitting that the subjects of her debut picture book are pigs.
