Perhaps it's the author's style, or the fact it's aimed at a YA audience, or maybe some subtlety has been lost in translation, but I found the narration a bit OTT at first.

Once I acclimatised however, this was enjoyable romp through rural France and a heartening tale of courage and friendship.

A few reviewers in here are complaining that many aspects are just not realistic, but isn't that why we read? To escape reality?

(Plus they have a few of their facts wrong. The girls bought most of the sausages from a market rather than make them all themselves, they did have a licence to sell food, they had a rechargeable fridge and several references were made to charging it, and they most certainly did not have perfect weather all the way. Hmph!)

I don't know the word for perfect in French, but whatever it is, that should be used to describe this book. Piglettes is a wonderful story and was like a breath of fresh air in my reading list. I'm very thankful that the publisher offered a copy for review!

I loved this book. I needed a funny and lighthearted book to read this summer and « les petites reines » was a perfect fit.

Énorme coup de cœur. J'ai éclaté de rire et été émue par cette histoire. Quand j'ai refermé le livre, j'avais la sensation de n'être plus la même.
