What is The piglet pickle about?

Nell and Freddie are best friends, partners in mischief and definitely not supposed to bring animals home from their school trip. But when Freddie smuggles a tiny piglet out of the farm, Nell hides it in her bedroom to save it from becoming sausages. Soon, bath time, secret snacks and a very muddy escape cause chaos. When a crime wave strikes the neighbourhood, the unlikely pair and their noisy new friend set out to catch the culprit.
