Bookroo's summary

Mr. Jenkins thought one pig in his pool was manageable, but as the week unfolds, pigs multiply at an alarming rate. By Saturday, the pool is overrun! Join Percy and Wanda in this hilarious tale of unexpected chaos and mathematical mischief. Can Mr. Jenkins regain control, or will the pigs take over completely? Dive into this whimsical story that cleverly teaches multiplication through a cascade of comical events.

From the publisher

On Sunday, Mr. Jenkins welcomes one pig into his pool (as a guest of his neighbor Ms. Peal, who’s brought along her famous seven layer dip as well). Really, how much trouble could one little pig be? But one pig becomes two and two become four… And by Saturday there are just TOO MANY PIGS IN THE POOL! This funny math-based story will have readers laughing along with pigs Percy and Wanda while learning about multiplication and the doubling sequence.
