3 Big Pigs
Fine Swine Trilogy
by
Arline Hershberg
This delightful coloring book/social commentary explores the lives of the
three little pigs, only they’re all grown up now, use cell phones, hire
architects, have guests visit them in “Sowhampton,” ski at Mount Snout, and have
amorous relationships. And oh, watch out for that wolf! |
Once upon a time
there was a family of pigs living in a sty behind a farmhouse.
They were very happy rolling in the mud, napping and watching TV
together and they were well fed by the farmer and his family,
until the day the father mysteriously disappeared.
The mother always suspected the
farmer of foul play but could prove nothing. She became very
angry and despondent.
One day she gathered her three
piglets and said, “The time has come. We’ve got to get out of
here.” That night as usual she prepared a wonderful meal and they
pretended to go to sleep. But after they saw all the lights go
out in the farmhouse, they each packed a duffel bag and left,
promising to stay in touch via their cell phones until they found
new homes. As they left, mom repeated the same inspiring words to
each. She whispered, “Location! Location! Location!” |
