Before you roll yours eyes thinking, “Great, another celeb book,” let us tell you: This guy can write. His latest effort, Swine Not?, is the story of Barley, a 9-year-old boy whose family moves from Tennessee to a New York City hotel with their pet pig, Rumpy. As they move in, a sign bodes ill: “No Pets Allowed.” Strictly enforced.
In addition to keeping a squealy pig out of sight, they have to dodge the hotel’s carnivorous chef. This story is based on true events in the life of the book’s illustrator, Helen Bransford. Buffett, also author of A Salty Piece of Land and A Pirate Looks at Fifty, brings a charming storytelling style to Swine Not?
Swine Not?, ISBN 9780316114028, is on sale now.
