Thydell, Johanna. There’s
a Pig in My Class! PICTURE BOOK. Holiday House, $16.95. Content: G.
The
loneliest pig in the world lives next to a school. Pig decides to make an escape and go to
school to eat tasty snacks, play fun games, and make new friends. The students
dress him up and hide him well. He has
the most wonderful of days until the teacher discovers his presence.
This book
is imaginative and far-fetched, but very heartwarming. The pictures and text blend incredibly well.
The main story takes center stage, but the author does a very good job of
inserting underlying themes of friendship, acceptance, and forgiveness.
