The Pig Who Saved the World

Hardcover (Candlewick Aug. 28, 2007) , First American Edition
The fate of the ancient Greek world is again in the hooves of a talking pig in this snortingly funny — and slyly informative — sequel to THE PIG SCROLLS.

After saving the Cosmos (and telling anyone who will listen all about it), Gryllus the Pig has decided it’s time to return to his human form. If only he could find Circe to reverse her curse! Along with friends Sibyl, the ex-priestess, and Homer, the teenage epic poet, Gryllus sets off on the high seas. But soon it’s clear that Gryllus’s transformation will have to wait — at least until he frees some captive gods and maybe even saves the world — again. Ripe with porcine-infused mythology and a sarcastic first-person — er — first-pig narrator, THE PIG WHO SAVED THE WORLD continues the heroic tale of Gryllus with prodigious spirit and oversize hilarity.
