Illustrated by
Lynn Munsinger.
Four animal friends are charged with creating a mural for the local candy shop. Pig Bitsy (who "loved to paint") takes her non-artist friends to the museum for inspiration, but when it's her turn to contribute, she's uncharacteristically shy. A sparkly jacket and bright watercolor illustrations match the easily resolved plot.
