Pigs came about because I was telling stories in a school way out in the country. I got the idea of making up a story about farm animals. I said "some of these kids must come from farms and they must have farm animals and they would like a story about farm animals." I said "Hey, anybody here live on a farm?" Lots of kids put up their hands. So I chose one girl named Megan and said "Well, what sort of animals are on your farm?" and she said "sheep." I said "Maybe I can make up a story about that." I made up the story of Pigs except instead of pigs it was about sheep. It was so good I got the little girl's name right away because I knew it might turn into a book. After two years of telling I started changing around what kind of animals could be in the story. I used chickens and I used cows, and I used horses and donkeys and finally I used pigs. It turned out pigs worked better than anything else - kids really liked the animals being pigs.

I Have to Go!
This was the end of the storytelling and I was making up a new story. I said "Who wants to be in a new story?" The little kid who had to go pee stuck up his hand and said "me, me."
