The book ""has an element of truth in it"" for in November 1909 in a letter to Millie Warne Potter wrote ""The two biggest little pigs have been sold which takes away from the completeness of the family group. But they have fetched a good price and their appetites were fearfulfive meals a day and not satisfied"" Linder 213. Indeed Pigling Bland concerns two real pigs Potter called Alexander and Pigling Bland; Potter herself appears in her drawing on page 22 along with Alexander. ""With its intimate fireside scenes and shared adventures Pigling Bland is almost a love story. However 'the portrait of two pigs arm in arm is not a portrait of me & Mr. Heelis though it is a view of where we used to walk on Sunday afternoons! 'Over the hills and far away!' seemed to symbolize Beatrix's own escape into a new life"" Taylor et al. 148 152.
