Hi, I'm Adam Gidwitz, host of Grim, Grimmer, Grimmest, and I'm here to ask you to make a very grim decision. Okay, ready? Would you rather play the bagpipes so well that dozens of pigs follow you everywhere, or receive a gift of two lions, two bears, two wolves, two foxes, and two hares? Now take a moment to think it over carefully. Ready? Let's hear some answers. pick the animals not the pigs the hairs and the other ones because they would have babies and
If my mom wasn't allergic to animals with fur, we could have them all and I could have infinite pets every day. Infinite! Mom! This is a perfect plan.

Oh, okay, yeah, so the second one would protect you, and the pigs would just keep you up all night from their snorting. Also probably from their smell. Anyway, thank you all for those great answers and helping us think through a very grim... decision.
