Hambone is a normal, little pig who loves to wallow in mud, gobble corn cobs and play with his brother and sister on Farmer Brown's acreage.
But Hambone has a dream - he wants a dill pickle - a big, green, drippy, sour dill pickle.
His dream is so compelling that Hambone leaves home to chase it.
He meets with many colourful characters on his adventure, including a parrot, a chef and a really big elephant until at last - his dream comes true.
But something unexpected happens to his tail as his.
