review 1: Work-from-home author Matt Whyman's somewhat comical midadventures raising mini-pigs, four kids, a cat, a dog and chickens.This book started out funny and amusing, but it just got tired and long at the end. I liken this to watching Everybody Loves Raymond. The premise is funny, but everyone seems pretty boxed into their roles (which makes this book seem a tad unrealistic). It goes on waaaaaay too long. The children seem like sidenotes, and the relationship the author has with his wife seems annoying.
review 2: I loved this book. I have a bit of a weird obsession with Mini(teacup) pigs, and so this was a book which really caught my eye on the bookshelf. This book really funny with the pigs being the center of the story, with some other fabulous characters thro... moreughout. How the two little pigs impacted Matt and his family's lives was really interesting, with the friends they make on the way adding to a truly brilliant book about one of my favourite animals. Time to invest in a couple of minipigs myself me thinks :) less
