Overview
Hopeless and dejected, he enters a back-alley door. He stumbles across a new path… a heavier path where he finds a community of listeners who think his music is totally metal!
After seeing a fancy dog playing fancy banjo music on TV, Joe Pig figures he can build his own banjo out of parts he finds in his junkyard. He works morning, noon and night to create this unique instrument… that will hopefully lead Joe to his new gig as a small-town musician with big dreams!
Joe falls into a series of hilarious mishaps with less than stellar reactions before he finds success & acceptance in the most unlikely, heavy, place. Sometimes, our talents & dreams lead us to the community we have always waited for.
The Story of a Pig Named Joe and His Quest to Be Fancy is an homage to all varieties of music enthusiasts, from groupies to musicians. The story is filled with bluegrass, country, classical and particularly heavy metal vibes. This is a solid picture book for any Young Reader or adult with daydreams of being in a local jam-band or even making it all the way to the big stages as the lead of a rock group!
