From School Library Journal
Grade 2-3-An entertaining, realistic story dealing with the sensitive feelings of children trying to make new friends. National Pig Day is approaching, and Quinn Kelley is the only one in her second-grade class who hasn't brought in something special for the classroom "Pig Patch" display. Then a new student, Manuela, arrives. Quinn wants to be friends with her, but misunderstandings occur. A hilarious classroom visit by a pet Vietnamese potbelly pig named Jelly Belly leaves Manuela without her project (a pig balloon). Then Quinn discovers a book called Pigericks and the two girls write their own rhyme for a whole-hoggedly satisfying ending. Full-page, black-and-white illustrations capture the children's activities, antics, and emotions. This is an enjoyable selection for youngsters just beginning chapter books; combined with Arnold Lobel's The Book of Pigericks (HarperCollins, 1983), it would make a good real-aloud-a class could have its own Pig Day celebration.

From Booklist
Gr. 2-4. Second-grader Quinn likes monkeys, but her teacher is centering everything this year on pigs. Will Quinn be able to think of anything to bring in as a Pig Patch contribution? Manuela, a new girl, hasn't brought in anything, either. Eventually, Manuela and Quinn become friends and make a joint contribution. There are some familiar stereotypes among the characters--bossy Annie May, for one. But what stands out most are the painful mistakes Quinn makes in trying to be friendly. That her goal is accomplished without adult intervention is a nice, realistic touch. Black-and-white illustrations add ample breaks for chapter-book readers. Mary Harris Veeder
