Fed up with the winter snows of upstate New York, Freddy the pig and his Bean Farm friends head south to Florida for the season. The first book in the Freddy the Pig series returns with exciting new color illustrations by Eric Shanower. To and Again - Freddy Goes to Florida was Walter R. Brooks' first children's book, though he was already a published author of one novel and twenty-five stories and articles for adults. Brooks wrote To and Again to amuse himself when he was living in Washington D.C. working as an advertising man for the American Red Cross.
