The tale of Pigling Bland

Once upon a time there was an old pig called Aunt Pettitoes. She had eight of a family: four little girl pigs, called Cross-patch, Suck-suck, Yock-yock and Spot; and four little boy pigs, called Alexander, Pigling Bland, Chin-chin and Stumpy. Stumpy had had an accident to his tail. Excerpted from The Tale of Pigling Bland by Beatrix Potter All rights reserved by the original copyright owners.
