Too Many Pigs in the Pool

Mr. Jenkins loves to spend sunny days by his pool, but finds it can get lonely; he invites his neighbor and her pet pig, Percy, over for a swim. The next day, Percy brings his friend Wanda, too. Mr. Jenkins doesn’t mind—until exponential growth gets the better of him and his pool. The multiplying pigs are charming, with expressive faces and humanoid traits—lounging in inner tubes; partaking in water aerobics—as they encourage readers to find fun in mathematics.
