outstanding

This book was so good that i could never put it down. I read this book for a test in school and i got every question right! Paul Zidel is a great author and one of my favorites. This story basically ends what the first Pigman story didnt. It can teach children lots of important morals in life by John and Lorraines experiances. The way that this story is written is almost like watching a movie in the theaters. Believe me it takes alot to have sit and read a book. I would of never found reading interesting if it wasnt for this book!

A touching story

When I read the book for the first time I thought that it was a wonderful book because of how all the charcters expressed their feelings throught the book. Brooke didn't want to be a dance but she also wanted her mother to be proud of her and what she chose to do with her life. It was sad when her mother had died but I was happy for the whole family when Brooke was on TV doing her dance. She also had a lot of guts to do that and try out for all those auditions and get turned down.It does take a lot of guts to do that and I think that everyone who wants to do something that big should read this book and learn what Brooke Hillary did.

Great Book

I read the first book, The Pigman, and I really liked it. So when I went to the bookstore and found this book I decided to give it a try. It was a really good book. I was expecting it to be just like The Pigman, but it wasn't. It wasn't as sad as The Pigman and John and Lorraine changed since The Pigman took place(even though it was only four months). Anyway, if you havn't read the Pigman and you want to read this book, I still recomend it. The book doesn't require The Pigman to make sense.

Bittersweet

This sequel couldn't quite surpass "The Pigman",but it came close. At first I didn't want to read it because the reviews made it sound boring,but trust me,it's not! It's happier and less melancholy than the first book. The kids have matured,especially John. It's spiced up by Zindel's usual wacky storyline and wonderful writing. He understands teens much better than most adults. I won't give away too much,but this novel involves more romance. Weirdness binds a motley crue of people,including John and Lorraine,of course. I wish she would've featured more prominently. It seemed that John "wrote" more chapters. (And why do they like old people so much?) For those who appreciate humor and seriousness,sadness and joy,I highly reccomend this book.

This book brought me to tears!

I believe that this book will emotionally change your life. The part that was the most gut-wrenching was when I read the few last chapters. I loved this book with all my heart. As I was reading through this marveleous book I grew to know the troubles Brooke was going through and you had this certain familiarity with her life as you would read along. I was sobbing throughout this book, and for me that is not a bad thing. You , after you read this book, will know that you have grown with this experience. I think anyone that cares enough about any kind of book should read this, and experience the emotions I felt when I read this book. I would proudly reccomend this book to anyone!
