{"product_id":"9781937359393","title":"The Pig on the Hill","description":"\u003cp\u003eThe pig lives all alone in a house on top of a hill. He’s very happy with his quiet life. He has his books, his tidy tidy house and a lovely view.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eUntil one morning he opens the curtains to find a duck has taken up residence on the tiny pinnacle of rock outside his window. Much to the pigs annoyance the excessively friendly duck likes the spot and decides to build a house there. With a swimming pool. And a garden and patio.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe duck tries to be friendly. He’s very confident and outgoing. It seems he’s been everywhere (unlike the pig), done everything; skiing, mountain climbing, parachuting, scuba-diving, even brain surgery. The pig just wants to be left alone.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eEventually, after a particularly loud party, the pig shouts at the duck, and the next morning finds a note pinned to the duck’s front door. It reads:\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e‘GONE AWAY.’\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eAt first the pig is pleased. But gradually realises that his life without the duck is quiet and slightly dull. He comes to miss the duck and regrets rejecting him.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eOne day there is a knock on the door and the pig opens it to find the duck wearing a som- brero and carrying a pinata. He’d only been on holiday in the South. He does it every year. Maybe next year the pig will join him.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Cameron + Company","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":47039721930992,"sku":"9781937359393","price":16.95,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0737\/7593\/9824\/files\/9781937359393_p0.jpg?v=1763660192","url":"https:\/\/shop-qa.barnesandnoble.com\/products\/9781937359393","provider":"Barnes \u0026 Noble (DEV)","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
