Synopsis
A quiet pig named Pete uncharacteristically goes tearing off on wild adventures with Pickles, a brassy circus elephant. Niagara Falls and the Matterhorn are part of the fun, in a vague, imaginative way. With Berkeley Breathed's stunning digital illustrations jumping off the page and a fine, spunky text.

Industry Reviews
"Breathed... writes in that giddy blend of skepticism and romanticism that have made his Pulitzer Prize-winning Bloom County comic strip a must-read--he creates not just a series of funny/tender vignettes but an emotional rollercoaster of a story, complete with a gripping life-or-death climax. Yet it's the digital artwork that's the real grabber. With nods to Hokusai and Hopper, Magritte and film noir, Breathed achieves a dreamy intensity, a sculptural heft that makes these images his most evocative and expansive to date."
