Editorial Review:
Pearls Before Swine is an impressive comic strip success story. In syndication for less than two years, it currently appears in more than 150 newspapers worldwide, was nominated as Best Newspaper Comic Strip by the National Cartoonists Society in its debut year-an unprecedented achievement-and its first book collection, BLTs Taste So Darn Good, has sold through four printings. This Little Piggy Stayed Home continues the adventures of Rat and Pig, who couldn't be more different-or more surprising. Rat is your typical Everyrodent: scheming, self-centered, and more than occasionally manipulative. By contrast, Pig is sensitive, kindly, and-even on his best days-just plain stupid. Together with Zebra and Goat, they confront the strange and wonderful world around them, a place that looks suspiciously like our own. By turns thoughtful and subversive, silly and sophisticated, This Little Piggy Stayed Home is one of the funniest comic collections of the year
Customer Reviews
Average Rating: 
Rating:  - Rat & Pig
Kudos to Stephan Pastis on his humorous comic strips. We love the stupid pig and angry rat.
Rating:  - Excellent as a gift
This is the second Pearls Before Swine collection, comprised of all the 2003 comic strips. If you are thinking about buying this book for your personal collection, I would recommend "Sgt. Piggy's Lonely Hearts Club Comic" instead. It is a treasury that combines the first 2 books, with the added bonus of having the Sunday strips in color and includes comments from Stephen Pastis. But this book is still full of great, hilarious strips and would make a great gift.
Rating: - Good, but the same comics
This book was very good, but it had the same comics as another of Stephan Pastis' books, "Sgt. Piggy's Lonely Hearts Club Comic". So if you already have that, don't get this.
Rating: - Little Piggy
As always the Pearls cast is entertaining. Pearls is only for those who appreciate Pastis' humor.
Rating: - WORST COLLECTION EVER...
This is the greatest collection ever!Everything is so funny,and they have a rat.True,pure classics.They are unlike the junk in other strips like 'Family Circus','Rose is Rose','Dr. Drake',and 'Marmaduke'.This almost matches the cuteness of bats.
