I STILL haven't read Pig Boy despite having a couple of copies in my school library. I haven't read Liz Porter's new book, but must get a copy now I know it's here. I read her wonderful book Written On The Skin when researching an article on forensics for the NSW School Magazine. I learned so much about the subject just from that book! I admit I have a tendency to over-research and that was only one of a pile of books and articles I read for a single article, but the knowledge will always come in handy. And that book was the best.
