Pig Tales is the true story of my current life with Oink and Porkchop, my two pet pigs. Although I understand that talking animals are no longer chic, these tales are narrated by Porkchop. He is the younger and smaller of the two pigs, but more precocious. Oink is the anti-hero. I am their mom, an old divorcee living in isolation with two parrots, two pigs and an old dog. The two pigs feel sorry for Mom and are always trying to improve her circumstances.

I chose Porkchop to be the narrator of these tales because he is a good story teller...always witty, informative and cocky. Parents and teachers will enjoy sharing these humorous stories with young readers, as this conceited little pig is fun to mimic. Also, Pig Tales is packed with true facts about these intelligent, affectionate and mischievous creatures. Although targeting young challenged readers in the middle grades, all ages will relish following these tales as they realize that, unlike the other well known fictional pigs, Porkchop and Oink are real.

What follows is an example episode:
