What is Pig and small about?

Pig is puzzled when his nose starts squeaking. After a careful investigation, he discovers a tiny bug hiding inside it. Pig and Bug decide to become friends, but their enormous difference in size makes sharing difficult. Pig struggles with Bug’s tiny creations, while Bug cannot keep up with Pig’s big games. Just when their friendship seems doomed, Pig finds an activity they can enjoy together. With humour, imagination and a little understanding, the two friends discover that size does not have to stand in the way.
