(2) 4-6 When Louise Tolliver's pesky brother Willie turns his back on an argument to go feed the pigs, she calls after him, "You ARE a pig." Willie disappears at the same time that a blue-eyed pig turns up at the farm, and Hearne plays further tall-tale havoc with the family before she restores order. Down-home humor enlivens the enchantments, and Hearne skillfully builds the escalating mayhem in lightning-quick chapters.
