King-Smith is also well known for his book BABE: THE GALLANT PIG which tells of the adventures of a sheep-hearding pig and which was made into the 1995 feature film BABE. King-Smith has also served as the host and writer for the English children's television programs "Tumbledown Farm" and "Rub-A-Dub-Tub." In addition to his short novels for children, King-Smith also writes nonfiction books and picture books for children.
