In "Me First" by Helen Lester, readers are introduced to a pig named Pinkerton, who is determined to be first in everything. Pinkerton’s insistence on being first leads to humorous situations, especially when he attempts to take the first bite of anything, from food to experiences. However, his selfishness brings about challenges, making him realize that being first isn’t always the best or the most rewarding approach. Through delightful illustrations and playful language, the story conveys the importance of sharing and considering others’ feelings, ultimately teaching Pinkerton and young readers about the value of friendship and cooperation.
