Is it a book about aspirations or the backstory for the board game? Chickapig is defined as "an animal hybrid that is half-chicken and half-pig" and is depicted in yellow, two-legged chick shape with pink pig snout and ears. Young Joe Chickapig lives on a farm that was his grandfather's dream, but it's getting Joe down. He dreams of adventure but needs the "courage to follow his heart. / But how could he do it? How could he start?" In a bedtime story, Joe's mother shares the influential characters that helped Joe's sailor grandfather "follow his heart against the tide." It seems that "Grandpa had heard a story told / Of a great big bear who broke the mold. / The bear was tired of striking fear"--so he became a forest doctor and a friend to all. And the bear's inspiration? "A mouse who went to space." The mouse, in turn, found hope in a "fierce young dragon" who joined a rock band. And coming full circle, the dragon found courage from a Chickapig warrior who "tired of shields and swords to wield" and established a farm. Chickapig game fans will appreciate this fanciful rhyming tale illustrated in attention-grabbing colors, but readers coming to it cold will note a distinct absence of plot. Mouse and dragon present female; all others are male. Take strength from the dreamers before you and follow your dreams. Or maybe just roll the dice. (Picture book. 4-6)
