4 options for Pigman response

On your own blog (the one listed on the sidebar to the right) create a new post that responds to the Pigman based on one of the following options:

1. Do John and Lorraine share any responsibility for the Pigman's death? Explain using examples or details from the story. What effect do you think the Pigman's death will have on John and Lorraine?

2. Why is it hard for many young people to have friendships with the elderly? Why do you think John & Lorraine got along so well with the Pigman (until the party, anyways).

3. Think about a real-life situation where you or someone you know was in a suspenseful situation. Explain why you or the someone you know might have enjoyed or not enjoyed the suspense. Include some detail in your description in order to create some suspense.

4. Find out some more about the author Paul Zindel. What do you think his goals were in writing The Pigman? What can you find out about the sequel The Pigman's Legacy? What else has he written or written about?
