Jeanie (jeaniusmommyof3) | 6 comments This book is a soft cover children's book that would have been published in the mid-80s to early 90s for 5-9 year olds. It could very well be Canadian. It involved three pigs who bought a large junkyard and then built a spa or resort out of the materials.

Here's a descrip:
BookList:
Books for Youth, For the Young: Ages 2-6. Ziggy is a young pig whose father, Iggy, collects junk. Iggy collects so much junk that Ziggy's house takes the expression "pigpen" to a new dimension. His porcine classmates tease Ziggy about his dumpy domain until the day Iggy locks himself in the barn and works there through the night, emerging at daybreak riding in an old bathtub gondola attached to a huge balloon he has fashioned from all of his collected junk. The moral of the story: "Protect our dear earth. / Don't throw it away. / You, too, could make magic / from garbage someday."
