| Publisher Description: Dylan made a promise to his friend, Patrick. He's going to take a photograph of a real potbelly pig at his grandparent's farm. When he arrives at the farm, Dylan quickly discovers Grandpa raises everything but potbellied pigs. Later, they visit the county fair hoping to find them. In the swine barn, Dylan see pigs of all colors, shapes and sizes. But no potbellies. He's almost given up when a girl wearing a blue jacket points him to the special exhibit area. Dylan races to the pens for potbellied pigs, but the pens are empty. Dylan finally spots the arena where these special pigs are being shown. He takes lots of photos for his friend, keeping his potbelly pig promise. |
