Emmy has a favorite toy; a little pink piggy named "Pinky." Her daddy is a reserve soldier going to war and the best thing Emmy can think of to remind her daddy of his little girl while he is gone is her beloved Pinky. Pinky is sent to war with Daddy and finds a home in his pocket. As Emmy and her family wait the long months for her daddy to come home, pictures, letters and phone calls let Emmy know Pinky is doing his job. Pinky is a good little buddy and Emmy feels good in her heart. At last, Daddy and Pinky come home to the warmth of tears, tickles and welcoming arms.
