| Publisher Description: Discover the sequel to Paul Zindel's groundbreaking bestselling young adult novel, The Pigman, which Publishers Weekly called "remarkable...a story that will not be denied." The Pigman and The Pigman's Legacy are perfect for fans of modern classics like The Outsiders by S. E. Hinton and Thirteen Reasons Why by Jay Asher. Four months after their friendship with the Pigman ended in tragedy, John and Lorraine are passing by their old friend's empty house when they receive the shock of their lives: an elderly man has taken up residence in the abandoned home. Convinced this down-and-out recluse is a sign from beyond the grave, John and Lorraine decide they've been given a chance to make up for what happened to the Pigman--a chance to make things right, once and for all. |
