Ten-year-old Mikey is a farm kid who doesn't want to farm. He wants to perform! But as an only child living in an isolated location, he has no one to talk to, let alone perform for. Life is pretty lonely until the day Mikey's parents give him three pigs to care for and raise.
As Mikey soon finds out, these are no ordinary pigs! Humphrey, Bianca, and Moo (yes, a pig named Moo) can talk! And dance! And put on show! Life on the farm transforms into a rehearsal space as Mikey and the pigs get ready for the big time-Broadway here they come!
But will they make it off the farm in time to escape the evil Mr. Baconmaker? And will their dreams of fame and fortune come true? The Next Big Pigs is a zany adventure that will encourage young readers to find their voice and pursue their talents. A farm boy with dreams of becoming a Broadway star acquires three talking, singing, dancing pigs and hatches an outrageous plan to escape to the big city.
