As old movie trailers used to say, “You’ll laugh. You’ll cry.”
When naturalist Sy Montgomery and her husband adopted a sick, runty piglet in 1990, their lives changed immeasurably for the better — and those lives were already good.
But Christopher Hogwood, whose story Montgomery tells in The Good Good Pig (240 pages, Ballantine, $21.95) was a symphony of blessings: a warm heart, a kind if mischievous nature, a great soul. Montgomery spins this touching tale with abundant tenderness but without excessive sentiment.
