RATING: 5 stars for Pigboy By: Vicki Grant
STARTED: APRIL 24,2014
FINISHED: APRIL 24,2014



REVIEW: Pigboy is great for anyone that enjoys suspense,humor, and action this book includes a wide variety of all three of them as it progresses. I enjoyed this book because it told the life saving story of Dan Hogg who saved all of his friends, and teachers from a criminal that just broke out of jail! I was on my feet the whole time waiting to see what would happen! I was hooked, and pulled in on this book as soon as I started reading it, and it is a very short book, but better that most I have read lately! I thought I would not like Pigboy as much by looking at the cover, and the title but when I read the synopsis I was like WOW, and I read it in one day! A very addicting short story book that you probably cannot put down! ( )

Even though the book is short, it's still really good, its even suspenseful at times. I think it's a good book for everyone. 4/5 KC (9th grade) I chose this book because a friend suggested it to me. ( )

I wouldn’t recommend this book. It was a weird book but well written. The only reason I would recommended this book because it is short and an easy read. I read this book because of the teacher.

A quick good read. Great story of the underdog saving the day and being who you are no matter what. Exciting and funny at the same time. ( )

The book was funny and had a twist. I like comedy’s books with adventure and it was recommended.

“Author Vicki Grant does a great job capturing the reader’s interest and holding it with plenty of both humor and suspense.”

“Grant hits the nail on the head…A compelling story with lots of suspense, but it’s the journey to Dan’s personal redemption that is most enjoyable to read. Highly recommended.”
ajouté par percivalbouse | modifierCM Magazine
 
“…an exciting, funny adventure, with the tension building to a very satisfying finish. This award-winning author has a great sense of humor, and will have you laughing at Dan, and with him, as he outsmarts the bumbling robber and rescues his classmates in a short, quick read that will appeal to reluctant readers.

“This quick read is perfect for reluctant readers, especially boys. In a story of bravery and redemption, Grant moves quickly to first establish Dan’s post on the lowest rung of the social ladder, and then chronicles his eventual rise to the top.”
ajouté par percivalbouse | modifierKLIATT
 
“Grant has done a fantastic job of developing the voice of an adolescent who is the class bully’s whipping boy. Dan’s wry sense of humor catches readers’ attention and has them rooting for him practically from the first page. Pigboy is a great quick read for boys who may be reluctant readers but others will enjoy it as well.”
