Ace: The Very Important Pig by Dick
King-Smith
Loved It!
Meet Ace, Babes great-grandson, who also gets a new cover from Knopf
Paperbacks this season. Ace is an intelligent, lovable, unlikely pig
hero...King-Smiths delightful animal fantasy is lightly satirical, poking fun at
human pretensions in the foibles of the animal characters --School Library
Journal, starred review.

Best Book of the Year.
Personal Review: Ace: The Very Important Pig by Dick King-
Smith
This is another Dick King-Smith favorite of many people. This author has a
way with words..............especially with Ace; he can understand HUMAN
WORDS! He and his owner share a bond somehow; they can "understand"
each other. Named Ace after the Ace of clubs (because he has a club-
shaped birthmark), he doesn't want to go where his brothers and sisters
are going, and he's prepared to do anything as long as he doesn't have
to......he doesn't really have to do anything, though because of his talent,
although he DOES makes peace with the farmer's pets, Megan &
Clarence. Ace, along with lots of other King-Smith's pigs, is better than
E.B. White's Wilbur.
