The Big Pig Stampede

(4) 4-6 Goat Boy Chronicles series. Illustrated by Amerigo Pinelli. A pastor/storyteller retells some New Testament miracles from the perspective of eleven-year-old Gideon, a.k.a. "Goat Boy." Gideon and friends are witnesses as Jesus reveals his teachings, and they struggle to process both mildly humorous and serious events. The stilted language is quite contemporary, which may engage some readers to look at the biblical world differently. Occasional cartoony line drawings add little.
