Synopsis

Bianchi's story is an uproarious version of the classic tale of babies who happen to be switched at birth. This accident brings together two families of hogs with very different lifestyles--"Wild Bill" Boar and his wife Flora, a pair of tusked yahoos, come face to face with the refined manners of the upwardly mobile Pigs. John Bianchi's fourth solo book for children is filled with this wonderful sense of humor and fabulous cartoon-like illustrations.
