THE OLD WOMAN AND HER PIG

The classic story of the old woman and her pig is told here with the pictures by Paul Galdone. A time-tested story, Paul Galdone's expressive drawings reach into the essence of each object involved—the sassy pig, the grumpy bull dog, the rigid stick, the playful water, the stubborn ox, the pompous butcher, the limp rope, the capricious rat, and the greedy cat. With humor and logic, the somewhat sadistic element of the story becomes less forbidding.
