Miniature Piglets made of ceramic, glass, resin & wood

Once there were three very peculiar, little pigs. They were brothers. One brother loved to eat, one loved to sing and dance. The other brother was, well he was practical. On this particular day two of the pigs, Higgle and Niggle, were getting ready to build their new houses.

Higgle: Come on, Niggle, get away from that window. You've already eaten six bubble gum ice cream carrots, twenty chocolate covered corn cobs, and who knows how many potato peel malts! Now stop looking at that candy in the window and come along. We must get to the fields and build our new houses. Brother Walter has almost finished his brick house and we haven't even started yet.

Niggle: Walter is a boar.

Higgle: It's true. Walter doesn't even know how to sing or dance the way his very talented brother does. It seems to me that all Walter ever thinks about is that dumb old brick house of his. After all, Mother split her meager fortune so that we could go out into this cruel, hard world and live better lives than her own poor, undernourished, underfed, half-starved, famished...

Niggle: Ah, don't worry Mom, I'll eat a million peppermint parsnips just for you.

Higgle: There, there Niggle. I think the parsnips will have to wait. It's time to go build our houses. Now you go that way and I'll go this way. And I'll come visit you when you've finished your house.

Niggle: You know, thinking of Mom always makes me hungry. I'll start building as soon as I eat a little snack.

Higgle: Good luck, Niggle. Now let's see, before a pig can find the right place to build a house, he must sing a song and dance a little dance. Build one, cha cha cha, build two, cha cha cha.

Hugo: There you go Hugo, you very clever, masterful, marvelous, handsome and oh so hungry wolf, you. Did you see those fat juicy little pigs? Um, um, um, um um! What tasty suppers they would make. A plan, I must come up with a plan. I've got it! I'll use the old huff and puff trick. I bet with a little practice I'll be eating a fresh piggy for supper. Haven't lost the old touch. Well now, let's see, should I start with this pig? Or maybe that pig? Hmmmm, oh it hardly matters, before the end of the night I'll serve them both to myself. Here piggy, piggy. Here you cute little piggy you.

Niggle: Ouch! Well now, that's what I call a house rising. And that's what I call a pretty fine house. Yep, best straw money can buy. You know, I think it's time to go inside to eat a well deserved snack.

Hugo: Hummm. The question is, how does a clever wolf get the pig out of the house? Ha! I've got it. Ding dong, ding dong... ice cream, real fresh ice cream. Come get your ice cream while it's good and cold. Come and get it.

Niggle: Ice cream? Why that's a wolf, and he doesn't have any ice cream at all. He's just trying to get me out of my house so he can eat me for super. Well, I'll show him that I'm not any dumb old pig. Not by the hair on my chinny chin chin. Mr. Wolf, I'm going to stay here in my safe little house until you go away!

Hugo: Safe little house? Don't make me laugh. If you won't come out then I'll have to huff and puff and blow your house down. Hey, no one ever told me that pigs could run. You big bundle of lard, you come back here right now!

Higgle: Figaro, figaro, figaro...home sweet home, home sweet home, home sweet home...

Niggle: Higgle, oh Higgle! The wolf is after me! The wolf is after me! Where can we hide?

Higgle: Now don't you worry about a thing, little Niggle. I've built a fine, strong house. Just come on inside and relax. No one will get us here.

Hugo: Clever, clever wolf. By letting the first one go, I've laid a trap to catch two in one blow. Piggies, piggies, don't be clowns. If you don't come out, I'll huff and puff and I'll blow your house down.

H & N: Not by the hair on our chinny chin chins.

Hugo: Okay kids, you asked for it. You're not going to get away from me this time! Oh, a wise guy, huh?

Niggle: Na na na na na.

Higgle: Whew! That was too close for comfort. Come on, Niggle. Walter will know what to do.

Walter: Let's see. I'll put the garden in over here. And the garage in over there. And...

Higgle: Oh Walter, you have to save us!

Niggle: THE WOLF IS AFTER US....

Higgle: AND HE HUFFS AND PUFFS AND HOUSES JUST FLY ALL OVER THE PLACE!

Niggle: Walter, he's big and ugly...and he's very hungry.

Walter: Hello Higgle, hello Nigggle. Fine weather we're having. You two seem a bit upset. Why don't you come inside and we'll talk it over.

Higgle: And he was saying naughty things about pickled pig's feet.

Niggle: And roasted pork ears. Walter, he is a very bad wolf.

Hugo: Three little pigs. Count them--one, two, three. One for my appetizer, one for my main course and one just for dessert. Yum, yum, yum. Okay, you in there. That's right, I'm talking to you pigs! Come on out. There's no reason to fight me any more. I'm too strong and powerful... not to mention hungry. So come on out right now.

All Pigs: Not by the hair of our chinny chin chins.

Hugo: Ohhh those pigs! But wait, I have an idea. Hugo, you are so clever, so clever.. You know, they just don't build chimneys the way they used to. Oh well, here goes.

Hugo: Come back here, you pig, you.

Higgle: Gotcha.

Hugo: Ouch, why you....

Walter: Hey, who turned out the lights?

Higgle: Gotcha.

Niggle: Let go of me, you nit wit.

Higgle: Oh, sorry.

Hugo: Here piggy, piggy, piggy.....piggy.

All Pigs: Ah Ha. We Gotcha!

Higgle: Well, what do we do with him now?

Niggle: Why don't we build a cage and keep him for a pet?

Walter: Hold it, hold it, hold it! The only things you two are going to build are houses. And this time your are going to build them right. Understand?

Higgle: Yes Walter.

Niggle: Yes Walter.

Walter: And as for the wolf, we are going to take him to the zoo where he can't do anyone else harm.

Hugo: I wonder if they serve good lunches there!

Walter: Tut, tut, come along now. Let's go.
