A Pig Parade Is a Terrible Idea Book

Okay, so, on the one hand I'm not sure how much I like the idea of a book telling kids that their idea of having a "pig parade" is a "terrible idea"--why be so discouraging of imagination? And, I happen to really like pigs. BUT, ohmygosh, the reasons why we should NOT have a pig parade are so very, very funny and so well told, I just thoroughly enjoyed reading this book! The illustrations are humorous with a clever blend of realistic portrayal of pigs (no cartoon versions here!) but in ridiculous "parade" situations. And, at the end, I think the "credibility" of the naysayer narrator is put to rest in a fun and surprising way ;-) So, overall, a fun book that I would recommend to anyone looking for some witty humor.
