Bathtime for Garth Pig and other stories
Three tales featuring Mr and Mrs Pig and their ten piglets. The first two situations will be similar to those experienced by many a human family: there's Benjamin digging in his trotters and doing only what he wants; Mrs Pig putting in a firm bid for equality of the sexes; and the title story sees the return of the wily baby-sitter from the original Mr and Mrs Pig's Evening Out in the guise of a party guest whose intentions are anything but honourable. Readers who've already made the acquaintance of Garth and his family will approach these stories with justifiable anticipation. Those new to their delights should relish them too.
