Welcome to the life of Chris P. Bacon! This adorable baby pig, who was born without the use of this back legs, became a YouTube and talk-show sensation when his adopted dad, veterinarian Len Lucero, posted a video online of tiny Chris learning how to use a cart made out of toys. This determined piglet soon mastered the device and was rolling to interviews across the country. Here, in his first book, this inspiring little guy tells the story of his life so far.
Chris P. Bacon is the very cute, inspirational true story of a little pig who became a big deal on the internet and TV. Chris’s back legs would not work, so his adopted “dad” (a vet) designed a cart for him to wheel around on instead. Chris became a Youtube sensation and appeared on TV shows.
This book is told from Chris’s point of view and uses both illustrations and real photographs to tell his story. It was cool for me to read as an adult, and I am sure it will be for children.
