The Nature Kid’s Guide to Pigs: A Level 2 Reader for Curious Young Kids Who Love Pigs!

Oink! A snout pokes through a fence and sniffs the morning air. A curly tail gives a quick wag. It’s a pig – and it’s ready for breakfast!

Most kids think they already know pigs. But the animal in this book is nothing like the muddy cartoon version. Pigs are smarter than dogs, can outrun most kids, and communicate in over 20 different sounds, including a bark they use when danger is near.

“The Nature Kid’s Guide to Pigs” takes children ages 7–12 from the barnyard to the wild forests of Europe and Asia, where pigs’ bristly ancestors still roam today. Written for Level 2 readers in short, confidence-building sentences, this book covers everything from the snout that can smell food buried underground, to the mud baths that work as sunscreen, to the mama pig who sings a special song to her piglets every time they nurse.

Smarter, faster, and funnier than you ever imagined.

Your child will discover that a pig’s squeal can be louder than a motorcycle, that piglets can learn their own name, and that one famous pig named Pigcasso became a celebrated artist whose paintings sold for thousands of dollars. With over 500 breeds and more than a billion pigs on Earth, there is a lot more to this animal than bacon.

Thousands of young readers have explored the Nature Kid’s Guide series. This curly-tailed character is ready to be their next favorite.
