Boris, Morris, Horace, and Doris are four wild boars. I am sorry to say that these four animals are not well-behaved boars. Dear me no! These boars are “bossy,” “selfish,” “stinky,” and “HUNGRY.” These four stinky swine are so hungry that they eat cakes, hot dogs, pizza, pickles, and so much more - and they are still hungry.
While she is eating a cookbook, Doris spies a recipe for a pudding. It surely will be the most delicious, messy, sticky, gooey, and chewy pudding every created. Of course, being the Wild Boars, Morris, Boris, Horace and Doris are not satisfied with making the pudding according to the recipe. Instead they add some very nasty ingredients to make it very large and to their dubious taste.
In this funny and thoroughly entertaining picture book, we meet a quartet of porcine characters who are utterly disgusting – and loveable. They behave badly, are gluttonous, and they have a terrible taste in food, but we cannot help finding them endearing.

This book is about four boars who eat everything and while eating a cookbook find a dessert recipe. They try to make a dessert with many different kinds of ingredients, not all good. The book is entertaining and the illustrations do a great job of complementing the story. Younger readers would enjoy this book.

Besides being naughty, greedy, stinky, and rude, wild boars Boris, Morris, Horace, and Doris are also very hungry and luckily Doris finds the perfect recipe for them to make. ( )

What a romp in the kitchen!! I haven't read such a hilarious and perfectly illustrated book in ages. This was a real treat - as much as the biggest pudding in the whole world! ( )

Book description

Amazon.com Product Description (ISBN 0805075232, Hardcover)

THE BOARS ARE BACK! But watch out, because this time they’re not only bossy, selfish, and stinky, they’re hungry, too! If you thought Boris, Morris, Horace, and Doris already had bad manners, wait until you see them concoct a Massive Pudding. And if this pudding sounds horrible, the ingredients will leave you speechless!

Meg Rosoff and Sophie Blackall team up again to delightful results in this companion book about the beloved disgusting wild boars. The wild boars have established themselves as forces to be reckoned with, and this second installment will not disappoint—it’s laugh-out-loud funny!
