Annotation: Why would anyone welcome a potbellied pig into their home? Arent pigs dirty, smelly animals? No way! In fact, potbellied pigs are clean, intelligent, and fun-loving pets. They can even be trained to do some tricks and walk on a leash. These playful porkers are no ordinary pets! A potbellied pig might be an unusual choice for an animal companion, but love comes in all kinds of packages. How can kids find out whether a pig is the right pet for them? Potbellied Pigs explores the responsibilities and rewards of caring for this pet through real-life anecdotes and practical advice. Engaging narrative text and vivid, eye-popping photos of these unique creatures will keep young readers turning the pages to find out more.
