Seventeen hilarious poems featuring pigs and movie classics featuring monsters fill the book's pages. While this one might not appeal to everyone in a middle grade classroom, for some, the unlikely pairing of pigs and horror will seem sublime. One of my favorites was "Mummy Pig" who goes in search of "those who put sand in my underpants" (p. 9). Ouch! The pen-and-ink illustrations add a great deal of humor to the already-funny poems.
