1. The main reason that the author wrote the book The Pigman was because of his teacher Nonno Frankie. Nonno Frankie really helped out the author of this book when he was growing up.
2. The story is kind of similar, the Pigman helps john out in both stories. But stuff that has happened to the Pigman is not really known, and we really don’t know the real Lorraine’s life style and such.

1)The author Had the idea to come up with the pigman book because one day him and his friends was looking for treasure in the castle in lived in and a guy came to his house to buy his car
2) its close to the story but means that the guy is lonely and just bought the car to have someone to talk to
3)i thought the article was cool in a way

1) The reason that the author wrote this book is just for the fact that he wanted to explain his life, all how it went and because his teacher inspired him to do it.
2) The stuff that happens in the story is close, but there is some differences, the pigman gets sick and is in the hospital which is a big difference from the true story.
