📚🐹 It’s Book Lover’s Day, Piggies & Pals! Are you a bookworm? 🐹 💗 💗 💗 📚 📚 📚 🪱 🪱 🪱

The term "bookworm" (which has its English origins in any insect which bores through books) has interesting equivalents in other languages:

🇬🇧 🐛 📚 Bookworm (English)
🇮🇩 🪲 📖 Book flea (Indonesian)
🇷🇴 🐭 📚 Library mouse (Romanian)
🇩🇪 🐀 📖 Read-rat (German)
🇫🇷 🖋️ 🍷 Ink drinker (French)
🇩🇰 🐴 📚 Reading horse (Danish)

There’s actually quite a lot of guinea pig fiction to be had nowadays, from classics such as Pigs Is Pigs to modern children’s stories, adventures, mysteries, and tales featuring guinea pigs. Do you have a favourite? Mine was the Fluffy books, about a classroom piggy who was always getting into season scrapes.

Of course, piggies themselves have very broad literary tastes and can be found scurrying around lots of different book genre aisles.

Don’t nibble the pages, please!

Happy Book Lover’s Day — and Wheek Quietly! 📖 🐹

Wheek! Wheek!
