Sylvia Jean is a pig that has to earn the good deed badge for her Pig Scout Troop. Her plans to help her neighbor are ruined because the first visit went very badly and she was forbidden to return. Sylvia Jean decides to use different disguises and visits the neighbor each doing doing something nice. But because of her disobeying, Sylvia Jean can't tell the leader what she has done. But Mrs. VanHooven shows up at the meeting and tells everyone she knew it was Sylvia Jean. Sylvia Jean gets her reward.
I might share this book with these questions: What is a good deed? Have you ever done a good deed? What are the pig scouts? What is the story trying to teach you? Is anyone apart of the girl scout or the boy scouts? I can get the students involved by having them design a good deed badge. ( )

Very cute. It made me smile and chuckle. Sylvia Jean is a scout who is working on earning a "Good Deed" badge. She attempts to help a neighbor, which falls through. Frustrated and upset, she remembers that a scout doesn't give up. She tries again, using her costumes to disguise her identity and succeeds in completing her badge.
