Title of review: The Pig man

Number of stars (1to 5): 4

  This book was about two friends John and Lorraine come across and old man and become friends.

   When the teens become friend the kids find out that he had no children and his wife had died. Then they felt sorry for the old man and they hung around so he would have some company. Then one day he asked them to go to the zoo and they said ok so they went to the zoo with him and there was a baboon that he talks to. Then one day they found out that the baboon had died. Then the old man got depress then he went to the hospital while he was in the hospital they had a party in the house and they broke one of the pig statue and then the old man got upset and then not to long after the old man die.

 I thought this was a ok book but I think that it was mean to play that prank on the old man and they broke there oath and then they made him be depressed

 It was about the two teenagers making friends with an old man and the old man dies at the end when the teenagers broke the oath, and the baboon dies too.

  I thought this the book overall was a good book because the teenagers made a new friend but at the end the old man dies and the baboon does too. Then the teenagers feel bad that they kidded let him die.
