Acerca de esta escucha

Originally published in hardcover in 1972, A Day No Pigs Would Die was one of the first young adult books, along with titles like The Outsiders and The Chocolate War. In it, author Robert Newton Peck weaves a story of a Vermont boyhood that is part fiction, part memoir. The result is a moving coming-of-age story that still resonates with teens today.

"Reading this book is like sipping hot cider in front of a crackling potbellied stove. Every page is suffused with wit and charm and glowing with warmth." ( Newsweek)
"A lovely book. . . . Honest, moving, homely in the warm and simple sense of the word. . . . It is small, accepting and loving and it succeeds perfectly." ( Boston Globe)
"You'll find yourself caught up in the novel's emotion from the very opening scene. . . . Love suffuses every page." ( The New York Times)©2010 Robert Newton Peck (P)2010 Listening Library

Would you listen to A Day No Pigs Would Die again? Why?

Yes - there are a lot of themes addressed that can not be understood in one reading

What did you like best about this story?

I liked the reality of the situations that the boy had to face and the strong manner in which he did so.

Any additional comments?

This book is written in an easy manner that a child can follow, but the subject matter, while written about a young boy on a farm, is deep. The main character, Robert, takes the reader on a journey to manhood through his experiences on his farm. There are times when he shows more strength and understanding than the grown men around him. He learns of the realities of life and death, the joys the small things in life, the love of family, the strength to do what is necessary for the greater good, and many more interesting and sometimes difficult to listen to experiences. Life on a farm does show in beautiful, and sometimes brutal ways the realities of life. I suppose that is why some of the hardest workers I have ever met were raised on a farm, milking a cow every morning and night. In some ways this book reminds me of "All Creatures Great And Small" only not humorous and focusing more on the meaning of life.

The story itself was lovely, but the narrator were what made it so beautiful. The author's way of learning to understand his father & the meaning of the Shaker ways were heartwarming and touching beyond belief.

I love this story! A real story of a boy coming of age. I laughed, I cried. I felt inspired. Every struggle of his was mine. I’ve read and re read this book every ten years or so of my life because it grounds me and reminds me what in life is really important. Thank you Robert Peck.

Greatest writing

I look forward to teaching this “banned book.” I hope it helps my kids appreciate their families and all they have, but mostly those who love them.

Honest & Honorable
