About the Author:
From Booklist:
Anne Rockwell is a pioneer in the field of nonfiction for very young children. She has more than a hundred books to her credit, including Why Are the Ice Caps Melting? and Clouds in the Let’s-Read-and-Find-Out Science series. She lives in Greenwich, Connecticut.
Mr. Porker is a fanatic about basketball and teaches his twin piglets to play the game at a very early age. The family plays with a diverse group (horses, bears, foxes, goats, etc.) known as the All-Hoops Parents and Kids League. The talented twins' lives become so consumed with basketball that they can't even enjoy playing in the snow because they have to rush off to another game. When the twins complain, Mr. Porker relents and allows them to take time out from basketball and spend some time doing as they like. Although the messages—the dangers of overbooked schedules and obsessive love of sports—are more for parents, children will enjoy the sports connection and should identify with the family and team dynamics. The pictures amusingly feature many unlikely animals cavorting on the court and, conveying a pleasing domesticity, show the Porker family at home. This book is not a slam dunk for every library collection, but appropriate for many. Enos, Randall
