After they have done so, have them explain the context and the importance of it. This activity will allow the students to accomplish multiple things: it will allow them to use their imaginations and show creativity and they will have the opportunity to be artistic, but most importantly they will be required to individually decide which event they deem most important. Sharing their cartoons with other members of the class will allow for discussion and debate of what is the most important and why they feel that way.
Lastly, the activity will be fun and interactive to keep the kids interested. Analyzing Literature. The Pigman by Paul Zindel. The Pigman by Paul Zindel. The Pigman by Paul Zindel.
The Pigman And Me
On their own or in pairs, the students will take the story of The Pigman and alter it. Have them make a picture book of The Pigman in the genre they desire. The basic plot, main characters, moral, and symbols (pigs, Bobo, coffin, etc.) need to all be present, but the story itself may be changed into a fairy tale, a horror story, fantasy, mystery, western, romance, or whatever they can come up with and you deem appropriate.

(Examples: the three monkeys at Beekman's, Bobo and the zoo, the cemetery, Mr. P's pig collection, even Norton) Draw, or otherwise graphically represent, at least 4 or 5. Use a quote under each to label it. Explain what each represents and how it is used to further the story. A to Z Book for the novel.

Write an essay exploring who's at fault (if anyone) for Mr. Pignati's death. You may conclude that the responsibility should be shared.
