Miss Piggy’s Guide to Life
Beard, Henry & Miss Piggy
ISBN: 0394519124
Muppet Press & Alfred A. Knopf New York 1981 First Edition Stated
4to - over 9¾" - 12" tall Hardcover 650 g; XII, 114 pages, illustrated with numerous monotone, as well as the mandatory full-page colour photographs. Colour illustrated dust jacket. Contrary to scurrilous rumour this is not the edition with the centrefold au naturel. (And that centrefold was photo shopped.) All of the advice in this book has been carefully thought out, -- there is nothing half baked, so there is no fear of salmonella, -- and anyone who follows it, will probably end up with Jack Nicholson as a roommate.
