Summary: A Day No Pigs Would Die
Comment: One of my most favorite books is A Day No Pigs Would Die by Robert Newton Peck. In the story Robert Peck, a twelve year old boy tells about his life in Learning, Vermont in the 1930's. Robert Peck has sixty books to his credit. I think this book is a good young adult book.
This book is about Rob getting a reward for helping his neighbor's cow have a calf. His reward was a piglet. He named his pig Pinky.Robert's aunt comes to visit and he shows her his report card that has a D in English on it.Later on Rob goes to Rutland Fair and wins first place for best behaved pig.
I think this book is very interesting. It will make you laugh and cry. I also approve of it for only mature kids. I would rate it a 4 star book. Leslee

Summary: This Book Is Informative But Short.
Comment: I thought that the book A Day No Pigs Would Die was a good book by the author Robert Newton. I don't read a lot and I thought that it was a good book for middle school students and up. It has content that I would have considered unusual or uncomfortable two or three years earlier. Robert Peck, the main character of the book goes through many changes over the course of this book (one year) and eventually becomes a man. This book contains little bits comedy, like in a part of the book when Rob goes to a fair with his neighbors and it shows his innocence, or with his vocabulary. Finally the story is has a large amount of thinking to it, you have to wonder what is going to happen in the next chapter. I chose four stars because this book informs me about the life of a shaker boy on a farm and how it is exciting and boring at the same time! If you like to read informative books than I recommend this book to you.

Summary: Day no pigs would die
Comment: This is a kind of book that when you start it you can't put it down. A boy named Rob, decides to skip school. He sees a cow giving birth to a baby cow. He takes his shirt off and wraps it around the baby cow and pulled the cow out of its mom's stomach. He pretty much gave birth to the baby cow. The cow that gave birth to the baby cow had a goiter in it's esophagus so Rob thinks of another stupid idea and pulls it out of it's mouth. He got his arm stuck in the cow's mouth because the cow bit down and went rolling down with a very injured arm. For doing this, his neighbor (whos cows they are) rewarded him with a cute pid which Rob named Pinky. One day Mr. Tanner was going to the Runtland fair and wanted to know if Rob wanted to go to tshow Pinky. He did and of coure won first place which was a blue ribbon. A couple of weeks later, Papa couldn't find any food for their family so he had to kill Pinky and eat her. After that Papa, started to sleep in the barn. When Rob and his family wre going to eat dinner, Papa wasn't going to join them. He died in his sleep. Rob just didn't have aperfect life after he won the blue ribbon with Pinky.
