Leroy Ninker is a small man with a big dream: he wants to be a cowboy,
but for now he's just a thief. In fact, Leroy is robbing the Watsons'
kitchen right this minute! As he drags the toaster across the counter --
screeeeeech -- and drops it into his bag -- clannngggg -- little does he
know that a certain large pig who loves toast with a great deal of
butter is stirring from sleep. Even less could he guess that comedy of
errors (not to mention the buttery sweets in his pocket) will soon lead
this little man on the wild and raucous rodeo ride he's always dreamed
of! Nosy neighbors, astonished firemen, a puzzled policeman, and the
ever-doting Watsons return for a tongue-in-snout adventure about Kate
DiCamillo's delightfully single-minded pig.
