Author J. E. Bell revives this wild escapade from the original comics distributed by Dell Comics in the 1950's. Little Dinky thought no one could jump as far as he could. When he finds Pig and little pig attempting to jump over a mud puddle and failing, Dinky brags that he can jump it but winds up smack in the middle of the puddle, too.
