Pig and the Baldy Cat
Author(s): Barbara Catchpole
Pig has only ever had a hamster, nits and a verruca called Vincent. So when Pig and Raj find a cat tied up in a shopping bag, he decides to keep it - even though it is probably the ugliest cat in the whole universe. Things get worse for the cat when Tiffany decides to dress it up (a pink dress and frilly bonnet!) and its tea gets spotted down Pig's trousers. Will Pig and Baldy Cat end up best mates? Set Two of the Pig series is published by Ransom Publishing, a specialist publisher for reluctant and struggling readers. The Pig reading books all feature Peter Ian Green - although everybody calls him Pig, even his teachers. The 'Pig' reading series offers friendly, fast-paced and extremely funny stories in first-person diary format, for readers who want a great story in a quick read. Set Two of the Pig series is ideal for reluctant readers aged 7 to 12 with a reading age of 8 - 9 years.
