Like its predecessors, Pig the Star pairs an entertaining tale told in rhyme - "Pig was a pug / and I'm sorry to say, / he just LOVED attention. / He'd show off all day" - with bright, colorful illustrations done in acrylic. The result is an amusing read-aloud selection, one which offers a guide in how NOT to behave! I continue to be puzzled by the fact that the American publisher of this Australian picture-book series isn't bringing over the second title (Pig the Fibber), but is publishing all the others - surely it can't be because of the bad behavior of the canine hero, since that is the point of all the books? - but am glad to see this one making an appearance here. Recommended to all Pig the Pug fans, and to anyone looking for fun, humorous picture-books in rhyme. ( )
