There are great nuances of the farmyard animals interacting (the Cow who can't really speak with any other creature for grammatical errors, and just getting the letters the wrong way round); there are great call-backs for unusual details at the most surprising times (just what is Kitty using the contents of those bottles for?!) and there are brilliant instances of the book mirroring what happened last time. I did find the ending sort of dwindled, but in this instance it's like the calm before the storm, and the set-up before the cinema lights go up demanding we return for the sequel. So again that's hardly worth mentioning as a problem either – any further chances to enter the sheer brilliance of the world of these books is only to be seized with equally fart-propelled gusto.
I must thank the publishers for my review copy. We also have a review of [[The Seriously Extraordinary Diary of Pig by Emer Stamp]].
[[The Unbelievable Top Secret Diary of Pig by Emer Stamp|The Unbelievable Secret Diary of Pig]] is the first in the series, which the volume under perusal never once officially refers to. Part two is more or less self-contained, but why ration yourself to just the one instance of brilliance? For more wacky animals on adventures, you may enjoy [[Chicken Mission: Danger in the Deep Dark Woods by Jennifer Gray]].
