Pignapped--based on a true story

Based on the diaries of Lucky Hart, who lived in the 1800s, this zany adventure is an exciting page turner. The detailed illustrations feel like a step back into time. Scientists searching unsuccessfully for rare animal and plant specimens decide to kidnap a rare pet wild pig when the owner refused to sell it. They bring it to a museum to stuff and display it, but luckily Lucky Hart and his friends rescue it just in the nick of time.
