The Adventures of Piggy: The Handbag Hooligan

This is a childrens book for adults. It contains some of the stories of the misadventures of a very brash and outrageous doll that lived in my aunts handbag who would come out and whisper things to her which she would repeat. Some of these stories are based on real events that happened to Piggy and my aunt, Daphne. A painting was made of him by a well-known artist, he was thrown out of a train window and he did kick sugar off of tables and jump into peoples tea cups. Several poems were written about Piggy which I did not include in this book because I do not have permission from their authors, but a letter written by my great aunt, Buddie to Piggy is incorporated into one of the stories. . As children, Daphnes nieces and nephews as well as her friends were often entertained by Piggy. Those of the family who have read these stories have told me that they are an accurate portrayal of Piggy.
