The farmer wants to turn Daddy Pig into sausage. But little Pig protests: "Although I'm just a small animal, my daddy belongs to me!" From leftover feed, straw, and old tractor tires, Pig finds everything new that the farmer demands: sausages, gelatin, leather. All completely without pig. The farmer's greed gives way to understanding: pigs are smarter than sausage allows! Mischievous fun and social criticism combine in this rhymed picture book in a clever and humorous way, creating a child-friendly panorama of our relationship with farm animals.
