Peggy’s Impossible Tale by husband-and-wife duo Roy Miki and Slavia Miki is based on the “exceptionally special” guinea pig their daughter, Elisse, had as a child.
Guinea pig Peggy is a curious creature and so is this book. It follows Peggy from the pet store, where she has rather unkind words to say about her fellow animals, to her new home, where she is content. Peggy becomes the playmate and confidante of her new owner, a young girl from Vancouver named Lisa.
The story unfolds in a non-linear progression; Peggy unceremoniously achieves the impossible less than halfway through the book and again, with fanfare, at the end. Sprinkled in between Peggy’s pursuit of the impossible are atemporal vignettes. These are the moments when the book shines and Peggy comes to life.
