Illustrated by
John Kelly.
Dr. Hunter, the new owner of the luxurious Eatum Hall, invites pig Horace and goose Glenda for "a weekend of free gourmet food!" Why such generosity? Seems Dr. Hunter, a wolf, has his sights set on a little mixed-meat pie. The voice of hungry Horace sprinkles the tale with an extra dose of humor, while the illustrations provide ample visual puns.
