“Another rollicking addition starring the porcine wonder. . . . Will keep newly independent readers turning the pages.” —School Library Journal (starred review)Leroy Ninker is a small man with a big dream: he wants to be a cowboy, but for now he’s just a thief. In fact, Leroy is robbing the Watsons’ kitchen right this minute! But little does he know that a certain pig who loves toast with a great deal of butter is stirring from sleep. Even less could he guess that a comedy of errors will soon lead this little man on the wild and raucous rodeo ride he’s always dreamed of! Nosy neighbors, astonished firemen, a puzzled policeman, and the ever-doting Watsons return for a hilarious adventure.

Nice to see the same returning characters get in yet another hilarious situation. As always, the toast is the key. The wanna-be cowboy was priceless.
