The Pig in the Pond
By Martin Waddell
Illustrated by Jill Barton
An award-winning classic featuring a hot and bothered pig!
One day, Neligan's pig sits by the pond watching the ducks and geese play on the cool water. The pig gets hotter and hotter; the ducks and the geese get louder and louder. Then Neligan's pig does something quite unheard of -- she jumps in the pond!
