Description:
From Publishers Weekly Schotter's tongue-in-cheek, er, make that tongue-in-jowl, tale of a less-than-prudent pig whose appetite nearly lands him in the sausage section will be of particular delight to Francophiles. The author clearly adores the culture (especially the edible portion of it) and takes particular glee in assigning her characters names with double entendres. Unable to resist the temptation of Mademoiselle Le Sucre's delicious pastries, Monsieur Cochon visits her bakery, which is perilously close to the charcuterie, and falls into the clutches of the evil butchers, Monsieur Decouper and Henri La Faim. Fortunately, he's not fated for the plate--instead, he's rescued by a veritable army of furred and feathered friends. Though at times it nearly lapses into a treatise on the virtues of vegetarianism, Schotter's tale remains a pleasing romp. Catalano's colored-pencil sketches are full of slyly humorous detail, from the portrait of Maman pig hanging on the porcine hero's wall to his very proper attire--trotter spats and the de rigueur beret. Voila! Fun for all. Ages 4-8. Copyright 1994 Reed Business Information, Inc. From School Library Journal Kindergarten-Grade 3-A long-winded, ridiculous story. Monsieur Cochon, a vegetarian pig, braves the streets of Paris in search of pastries. An evil butcher captures him; the valiant creature is about to be slaughtered when his animal friends come to the rescue. The text is tedious, wordy, and lacking in humor. Most children will be utterly bored by it, and the references to unfamiliar foods (truffles, terrines, pates, macaroons) will flummox them. Although a "menu" of French terms-with translations and pronunciations-is included (oddly, it appears on the verso of the title page), it is woefully incomplete. Of the leading characters, only Monsieur Cochon's name is listed. Non-French speakers will miss Schotter's puns-the butcher is Monsieur Decouper ("Mr. Cut"), his assistant is Henri La Faim ("Henry Hunger"), and the pastry-shop owner is Mademoiselle Le Sucre ("Miss Sugar"). Inconsistent with the other characters, Madame Sparrow is given an English name. In a glaring typo, "Tuilleries" is spelled with an extra "l." Catalano's pastel, colored pencil, and watercolor illustrations are of the childish, coloring-book variety. Skip this one.Ann W.
