[jetangen4571 · Rating: 5 out of 5 stars]

"Fun, puns, and girl power"!What do New Pork City, Statue of Pigerty, and Central Pork have in common? It's where Penny Pig went to engineering school! Then her brothers were in trouble because of the Big Bad Wolf, so she went home, helped fix up the house made of brick, engineered traps for old Wolfie, and taught the readers about engineering!Hannah Marks illustrated the story, maps, and blueprints with vibrant colors and a good imagination.I requested and received a free temporary e-book copy from Capstone/Capstone Editions via NetGalley. Thank you!
