Slumgullion Pyg doesn’t want to end up on someone’s dinner plate. So he heads for the city and lands a job. He should be in hog heaven. But his troubles aren’t over, as he battles on-the-job anti-pig discrimination. No one ever said a pig’s life was easy. Includes a teacher’s guide containing practical, fun activities that can be used for language development, comprehension, motivate and develop writing skills. Ages 5 and up.
