Bookroo's summary

Bert receives a cryptic postcard from Florida with just one word: OINK! Determined to find his runaway pigs, he embarks on a frantic search through bustling streets and swamps. Unbeknownst to him, the pigs are cleverly disguised, blending into the vibrant Florida scene. Are they hiding under beach umbrellas or dancing to the Squealers' tunes? Join Bert on this hilarious adventure to uncover the pigs' antics under the sun.

From the publisher

A postcard from Florida with a mysterious one-word message–OINK!–is the only clue to the whereabouts of the pigs that ran away from Bert and Ethel in The Great Pig Escape. Acting on this slim lead, Bert frantically searches the crowded streets and muddy swamps of the Sunshine State, never noticing the hilariously dressed porkers hiding in plain sight.Are there pigs under those beach umbrellas, or rocking and rolling to the tunes of the Squealers? Come along with Bert on his great pig search and discover who’s hamming it up under the sun.
