Pigs don’t swim, or so it’s said. But on one of the hottest days of the summer, the pig on Neligan’s farm sits by the pond feeling envious of the ducks and the geese floating in the cool water. Finally, when she can endure the heat no longer-splash!-this sweltering pig takes a dive, throwing the entire farm into an uproar. It isn’t long, however, before the refreshing idea catches on, and the pig finds that she’s got company! This spirited tale with its exuberant illustrations is sure to be a hit with all those young and old who ever wanted to take the plunge.

I admire the colourful illustrations by Jill Barton which accompany the text. This is the type of story which children aged 5 and 6 years would find deeply amusing. We all know that pigs do not swim, so what makes Neligan’s pig jump into the pond? The pig in the pond is a book about a pig burning in the scorching sun, he sits beside the pond watching the ducks swimming away all day long, until he decides that he needs to cool down and jumps into the pond. The shock of the story is when Neligan arrives back at the farm to find the pig in the pond, his reaction is to take off all his clothes and join in.
