Flying Pigmie Almost everyone I know, including myself have been  fascinated with the thought of flying pigs (Even Lewis Carrol, in "The walrus and the Carpenter" in 1872)' The time has come,' the Walrus said,   'To talk of many things: Of shoes -- and ships -- and sealing wax --   Of cabbages -- and kings -- And why the sea is boiling hot --   And whether pigs have wings. ' I,ve only just realised that throughout history men (and women) have used the words " If pigs could fly" to suggest  that something will or won't happen. When Timothy first met the Flying Pig after he had wandered into The Lost Forests, he was totally surprised. He never believed in Flying Pigs until he was given the magic bag of seeds, by the Flying pig that he helped from the tree in The Lost Forests. Those magic seeds allowed Timothy to find and enter the Otherworlds. The flying pigs had large strong wings and unlike modern day pigs, their tails were dead straight. This was because they flew so fast, and so often, that any sign of a "TAIL CURL" was soon straightened out by the slipstream of the air when flying.     Buy your own Pigmie toys and books: Flying Pigmie Soft Toys Flying Pig Book  Soft pink velour pig with large wings that are connected to nylon lines and elastic on a plastic/metal ring.  When gentle pulled by their feet (very, very, very gently) they begin to fly.
