Review:

Kids will just love this book. It's really funny. The story is when a young girl named Megan is told by her dad not to open the pig pen and let them out. He said "Pigs are smarter than you think". But that's not what Megan thought and then proceeds to open the pen. And the next thing you know the pigs are running around causing trouble on the farm all the way to Megan's school.

This short story was delightful to read and the colorful artwork goes perfectly with the story by showing all the crazy zany things the pigs got themselves into.
