What is Piglet Meets a Heffalump about?

Pooh and Piglet decide to catch a Heffalump, so they build a clever trap and choose the perfect bait. Once the trap is set, the two friends go to bed, imagining the enormous creature they will find in the morning. But Piglet wakes in the night and discovers something unexpected. As fear, curiosity and friendship lead him closer to the truth, he learns that Heffalumps may not be quite as frightening—or as real—as he first thought.
