Have you ever wanted a pet more than anything? That’s the case with Sister. And she’s set her mind on a pet pig. But how can she make her wish come true? First, she must convince her brother, who’d probably prefer a pet gorilla. But soon she wins him over (with the reminder that pigs share his mutual love for mud). Next step? They must convince mom. The problem is, mom's favorite pets are garden plants. Mom eventually gives the kids' pet pig a temporary try. Soon, however, the two siblings realize that being pig owners is no easy task, for this little piggy knows a thing or two about mischief. With so much piggy mayhem ensuing, it seems doubtful mom will ever be won over. Find out if Brother and Sister will get to keep this (naughty) little swine by reading THIS LITTLE PIGGY: AN OWNER’S MANUAL, a chapter book for early readers ages 6-9, published by Aladdin Pix, an imprint of Simon & Schuster, and written and illustrated by Cyndi Marko the award-winning illustrator of the Kung Pow Chicken books.
