Porcine brothers Fergus and Dink are back in this sequel to 2011's Pig Kahuna, and younger brother Dink is having a bad day at the beach. The water is frigid, sand gets in his food, and a giant wave leaves him covered in the detritus of the sea. Luckily, Fergus knows how to improve his brother's mood, letting Dink be the captain of the pirate ship he's sculpted out of sand. "You're a perfect pirate, Dirk!" Fergus tells his livid, seaweed-swathed brother. "You even have the stink eye!" Sattler's thickly painted acrylics easily conjure roiling water, cloud-swept skies, and the turbulent emotions of one small pig. Ages 3–6. Agent: Anna Olswanger, Liza Dawson Associates. (Apr.)
