When a pig named Pig discovers a magic box able to make twenty-seven copies of anything you throw in it, his life is turned upside down with excitement! But as word spreads about his new toy, he finds it's not as easy as it seems to be in charge of infinite possibilities, and he maybe overreacts just a smidge. Of course, it doesn't help to have a crazy squirrel around, dancing ballet in his underwear. That never made anyone stay calm.

"The Pig and the Box" is a modern fable that teaches kids and adults alike that sharing is always a good idea.
