Read by Martin Jarvis
Huxley Pig, a new television favourite, loves living in a world of his own. When he finds the Clown's outfit in his Granny's dressing box, he juggles with eggs, until he drops them, and walks the tightrope on his dressing gown cord, until he falls off. He uses his bedspread as a Big Top and drifts into a wonderful daydream. But when he wakes he's not sure it was a daydream. This is an attractive package: a well-produced book illustrated with the ITV stills and a professional reading of a short, simple story with turn-over tone and sound effects.
