Babe- Character from the Sheep Pig By Dick King Smith


We have read the novel The Sheep Pig by Dick King Smith in class. We read this book because when Ms. O' Connell went to Croatia for the Microsoft Innovative Forum she brought our school mascot Piggley with her. Piggley is a pig from the cartoon Jakers.
When he was in Croatia Piggley met the Saltash school mascot (a hen)! Saltash is a secondary school in England. They have a web cam set up and you can see the hens and pigs that they are rearing on their school farm.


We wrote Character Profiles about Babe today. This was written by B612:
Babe is a pig. He got separated from his mom at a young age. Babe's best friend is Fly. Babe wants to become a sheep pig but every body thinks he crazy. Babe's other friend is Mr Hogget. He also likes a sheep called Maa until she was killed by a dog. Babe still thinks he can be a sheep pig and still be nice to sheep.
I like Babe because he is a cool pig and because he believes in himself and doesn't let others down. I also like him because he doesn't give up.
