Porkenstein

Porkenstein by Lasky, Kathryn. hardcover edition. ISBN: 9780590623803.

Newbery writer Kathryn Lasky presents a wildly funny Frankenstein / Halloween tale in the vein of Dav Pilkeys bestseller THE HALLO-WIENER, with hilarious illustrations by new artist David Jarvis. Dr. Smart Pig is a famous inventor, but he doesnt have any friends. His brothers were eaten by the Big Bad Wolf, and now hes all alone. Halloween is coming up, and he doesnt have anyone to go trick-or-treating with. Suddenly, Dr. Pig has an idea. He can INVENT a friend--a pig who is bigger and better and absolutely wolf-proof! But things dont turn out quite as expected, and soon Dr. Pig realizes hes created a monster--an enormous porker who hogs the show but ultimately proves that true friendship comes in all shapes, sizes, and appetites. Who ate the Big Bad Wolf? PORKENSTEIN, thats who!
