THE UNUSUAL JAM ADVENTURE

Publisher: Atlantic/Little, Brown

A foolish piece of fluff about Pig, who finds a new jar of jam in his cabinet, unaccountably grows wings and a horn upon eating it, then goes through the mail slot at the post office to a series of Wonderland encounters: finding himself stamped ""Resucer of Jam,"" he wanders to an odd little house where a bulldog dressed in lace cap and pinafore has ""No Jam Today""--as the unicorn has taken it off for a song, Further into the fancifully pretty woods, Pig charms the jam back with a song or his own, returns it to the bulldog, and ends up back home sans wings or horn. Or raison d'etre.
