About this listen

 Dive into the witty world of Ellis Parker Butler, the mastermind behind the beloved classic Pigs Is Pigs. In this delightful tale, we explore the life of Hiram and Marthy, a couple living a peaceful life in their charming Colorado town. They pride themselves on not having children, relishing the quiet and the savings that come with it—after all, how else could Hiram afford to surprise Marthy with a new silk dress? Their lives take a humorous turn as they navigate their feelings toward the adorable neighborhood kids while secretly enjoying their child-free existence. But everything changes when they find out they’re expecting a little one of their own, leading to an exploration of love, responsibility, and the ups and downs of parenthood. Join us for a funny and poignant journey that captures the essence of family life in all its messy glory. (Summary by Carolin and Phil Chenevert)
