Priscilla Philpott has grown up on a farm in Ireland with her three little brothers and loving parents Mother Pig and Father Pig. She's always been very fond of her looks and when her Aunt Pulchria invites her to Texas to take part in a beauty pageant she jumps at the chance, in no doubt at all that she'll trot away with the prize because of her gorgeous appearance. It will also be a chance to get away from the annoying muckiness of her siblings. This family of pigs does fly - on Aer Piggus - but things don't go as planned for Priscilla when Pulchria's servant Amber decides to enter the pageant too, proving to be the kind of rival prissy Priscilla (who has a ferocious temper) definitely doesn't want. You'll get to know all the Philpott family in this story which throws up all sorts of surprises, including a bad case of Pig Flightitis suffered by Mother Pig, who's never been on a plane before, on the return journey.
