I challenged my students at Brookside School to read at least 10,000 books during the months of January to March. If they reached their goal I would kiss a pig named Daisy (Datu). The students ended up reading over 12,500 books. Farmer Minor and Daisy ll was scheduled to visit Brookside School in early April. Daisy and Farmer Minor ended up doing a wonderful assembly with Farmer Minor telling his story about his "reading pig" and how he travels around the United States. Near the end of the talk I was called up to get a kiss from Daisy. Farmer Minor had me put a small piece of apple in my lips for Daisy to eat from my lips. Daisy gave me a little nibble on my chin and ate the apple piece as I gave him a kiss. It was a wonderful day and the kids enjoyed their time with Daisy the Pig.
