Synopsis

Hobart and his three siblings long for the life of artists: singing, dancing, writing poetry, and performing stupendous gymnastic feats. They practice diligently until the day the spiteful goose calls them “pork chops.” Forced to flee, the ingenious pigs find a way to stay out of the oven and help Mr. Mills keep his beloved farm...until disaster strikes and they are captured by the evil City Meat Truck Man. Can Hobart, Violet, Wilfred and Byron survive to develop their gifts to the fullest? Will Hobart’s hopefulness keep them from being the featured ingredient in a BLT? Read on!

Reminiscent of classic radio drama, this intriguing audiobook is even better because it contains the full, unabridged text. Special Feature: A high-spirited musical finale that will delight young and old alike.
