This time, Jillian's room really is filled with pigs!

This is a true story. Well - almost a true story. One day I showed Melissa how to make a little, felt bookmark mouse. As soon as her friends saw it, they wanted one too. So Melissa went into business making mice. Each one was special. Each one was different. Each had a name. In the end, she couldn't part with any of them. I watched this happening and thought, "That's exactly what Jillian would do." I started to write and then I got stuck. The Wonderful Mice of Jillian Jiggs didn't sound right. It clunked! I gave up and put the story away. Weeks later, I awoke with a start. Jillian wouldn't make mice. She would make -PIGS!
