The pig in the pond - Martin Waddell

One hot day, Neligan goes off to town in his cart. 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. The Neligan's pig jumps in the pond. All the animals come to see the strange sight of the pig in the pond. Then Neligan returns. He looks at the pig - and as he looks, he gets undressed. Then Neligan, followed by all the animals, jumps in too.;Martin Waddell's other books include "Can't You Sleep, Little Bear?"
