1-3Moose and Hildy series.
Illustrated by
Joe Mathieu.
When Moose's pig friend, Hildy, is invited to a southern "pig pickin'," she doesn't realize she's about to be barbecued. Luckily Moose discovers the danger and tricks Hildy into leaving. Barbecuing such an anthropomorphic pig seems odd, and Moose could simply tell Hildy the truth, but readers of this amusing book, with its lively illustrations, may well just go along for the ride.
