Summary
Hildy almost becomes the dinner at a Pig Pickin’ barbecue.Moose’s best friend, Hildy, is thrilled when a farmer invites her to enter a Pig Pickin’ contest down South. She thinks it’s a beauty contest, and Moose is eager to go with her. When they get to the county fair, however, Moose starts to worry. The farmer keeps offering Hildy pizza and ice cream. Why is he so interested in fattening her up? Is the Pig Pickin’ really a beauty contest–or is Hildy going to become the barbecue?
