The Pigman

  My review is on the book The Pigman.  It was written by Paul Zindel and is 222 pg long.

    This story is set in a small town somewhere in America and in school called Franklin High School. The main characters are Lorraine, John, and Mr. Pignati. Some of the less essential characters are Lorraines mother and Johns parents. The story begins with the reminiscing of John and Lorraine about their friendship with Mr. Pignati and how they became friends themselves.

    As the story takes off they immediately inform you about the bad choices they made and the things they know they should and should have not done to Mr. Pignati. When Mr. Pignati has a sudden heart attack John and Lorraine realize how much they really love and miss Mr. Pignati

    In my opinion I didnt like the book. The problem I had with the book was the immorality that the book contained. In the book John drinks smokes and doesnt have respect for his parents or other people. For some reason in the book Lorraine and John are able to do what they want without having to answer to anyone. The ending was really sad and that just isnt something I like. 

     The story does leave you hanging for a while and is exiting, but Id watch letting young children read the book though
