K-3Adventures of Max and Pinky series.
In this colorfully illustrated, gently irreverent, and very slight tale, Ziggy look-alike Max and pig Pinky are marshmallow-obsessed best friends. They love to play together, especially on Saturday, which is "Adventure Day." But one Saturday, Max can't find Pinky anywhere. Where could he be? Max realizes that, of course, marshmallows are involved, and the friends are reunited for more adventurous fun.
