Now I want to read the non-fiction book, A Good Good Pig, that this lovely and amusing picture book was based on! Christopher Hogwood was the runt of the litter. Now he is a "lean" 600 pound adventurer who loves to roam his rural neighborhood, sampling the garden goodies of the neighbors and digging muddy trenches. Fabulous illustrations by Barry Moser of Hogwood and the beleaguerd but good-natured neighbors, as they go on a chase to stop the pig destruction.

Definitely more for the older set, this is the story of a pig who was once the runt of the litter but is now a 600 pound porker who gets into trouble all the time.

The text is a little too long for my picture book taste, but this story of an escaped pig is cute. The illustration of the gardener raising a shovel to the pig seemed unnecessarily violent, but otherwise I enjoyed the illustrations. It's mostly a subtle story, so I think older children would enjoy it more than the younger set.
