As Piggy snores louder and louder, his friends begin to wake up from their little naps and try to get him to quiet down. They try everything to wake Piggy up, from tinkling bells and clanging on gongs to banging on drums. The little frogs even try to wake up Piggy with their ribbits. Nothing seems to be working. Will Piggy ever wake up from his deep slumber?

 

Along comes little Ladybug. She seems to know the secret to waking her friend. Do you have any idea of what might do the trick?
