ABOUT

Meet beloved adventurer Pig Pig as he masters the art of walking!

Baby Pig Pig is sitting in his playpen with the kitten. Bored, he decides to leave the pen and find Mama. He pulls himself up. He stands! He falls. He tries again. With perseverance and pride, Baby Pig Pig makes his way out of his pen and down the hall and right into Mama’s arms. Youngsters will love the building excitement of Baby Pig Pig's first steps, following David McPhail's adorable illustrations to their delightful conclusion. A must for baby showers and new-baby gifts.

STANDARD, PRIMARY, DM AND VARIANT COVERS

Standard and Primary covers are widely available through general retailers. They often have higher print runs and can be cheaper, especially during sales.

In contrast, Direct Market (DM) and variant covers are primarily sold in comic shops. DM editions tend to have more limited availability and may be more valuable to collectors.

The main differences lie in artwork style, availability, price, and collector appeal. Ultimately, the choice between standard and variant covers depends on personal preference, budget, and individual collecting goals.
