Official synopsis Publisher
“The denizens of the Bean farmyard…demonstrate what is best and worst in the human spirit not by aping humanity’s foolish fads but by being sweetly themselves.”–The New York Times Book Review
Freddy is Everypig — he over sleeps, overeats, daydreams, and writes poetry. He’s even a little bit lazy. And when he’s scared, his tail uncurls. He is by turns a cowboy, explorer, politician, publisher, poet, magician, banker, campaign manager, pilot, detective. Whatever the situation may call for, Freddy always rises to the occasion!
