From the publisher

Tom, the pig doesn’t like his short and curly tail. He wants to wag his tail like Sam the sheepdog, or swish his tail like Henry the horse. With the help of some mud, Tom works on getting his tail to straighten out. After a sleepless night Tom goes outside to sleep and luckily, the rain washes away the mud on his tail, making it soft and curly again!
