Pigs Is Pigs

Pigs is Pigs is Butler's first and most successful book of humor, the story of an inflexible railway clerk who insists on charging the shipping rates for pigs on a crate bearing a couple of guinea pigs. All is well until the aggrieved recipient refuses delivery and the guinea pigs start to breed at a ferocious rate in the railroad station. This is one of the era's most amusing children's works.
