Excerpt: ...Squinty. Several times after this the boy and his sisters came to look down into the pig pen. The pigs could tell, by the talk of the children, that they were brother and sisters. And they had come to the farm to spend their summer vacation, when there was no school. "That's the pig I am going to take home with me," the boy would say to his sisters, pointing to Squinty.
