Pig Kahuna

Title: Pig Kahuna
Author and Illustrator: Jennifer Sattler
Picture Book

     This is an adorable little picture book that I think many children would enjoy.  The story is about two pig brothers, Fergus and Dink, who love searching for treasures on the beach.  One day they find a surf board which completes their collection, but forces Fergus to confront his fears of the ocean water.  It is a cute and silly story about brothers, adventure, and overcoming your biggest fears.  I think this would be a great book to use in the classroom, either in a lesson or just for fun.  Younger students will definitely enjoy the humor and the beautiful pictures.  Jennifer Sattler does a beautiful job with acrylics and colored pencils to create vivid and colorful scenes of the two brothers and their adventures.  I would recommend this book for all primary level classrooms and students.  It would make a very fun and silly read-a-loud.
