520    Jeremiah's heart skips a beat before his frist soccer game,
       but it's not from nerves. It's the first sign of a heart 
       attack. He knows he needs to go to the hospital, but he's 
       determined to score a goal and not let his heart condition
       get in the way. Charging after the ball, he refuses to 
       stop...even if his heart does. J6 is a pig and the only 
       one of his five brothers who survived the research lab. 
       Even though he's never left his cell, he thinks of himself
       as a therapy pig, a scholar, and a bodyguard. But when the
       lab sends him to live with Jeremiah's family, there's on 
       new title he's desperate to have: brother. At first, 
       Jeremiah thinks his parents took in J6 to cheer him up. 
       But before long, he begins to suspect there's more to his 
       new curly-tailed companion than meets the eye. When the 
       truth is revealed, Jeremiah and J6 must protect each other
       at al costs--even if their lives depend on it.  This 
       charming story about family, sacrifice, and survival--set 
       against the backdrop of boundary-pushing science and the 
       ethics behind it--will inspire readers to never stop 
       figthing for the ones they love. 
520    In alternate chapters, twelve-year-old Jeremiah, who has a
       fatal heart condition, and J6, the pig growing the heart 
       that could save his life, give their own perspectives on 
       being a transplant donor and donee. Includes facts about 
       the research project on which the story is based.
