Pearls Before Swine is an impressive comic strip success story. In syndication for less than two years, it currently appears in more than 150 newspapers worldwide, was nominated as Best Newspaper Comic Strip by the National Cartoonists Society in its debut year-an unprecedented achievement-and its first book collection, BLTs Taste So Darn Good, has sold through four printings. This Little Piggy Stayed Home continues the adventures of Rat and Pig, who couldn't be more different-or more surprising. Rat is your typical Everyrodent: scheming, self-centered, and more than occasionally manipulative. By contrast, Pig is sensitive, kindly, and-even on his best days-just plain stupid. Together with Zebra and Goat, they confront the strange and wonderful world around them, a place that looks suspiciously like our own. By turns thoughtful and subversive, silly and sophisticated, This Little Piggy Stayed Home is one of the funniest comic collections of the year.
