The cover design combines photographic and typographic elements that reflect the chaos of the story. With a predominant green and a contrasting vibrant red, it aims to attract a youthful audience and stand out from traditional editions that use muted tones. Key symbols, such as the pig and the barn, along with the red, make the classic easily recognizable. Additionally, special finishes, such as the endpapers that mimic the pig's fur, provide differentiation and enhance the novel's unique atmosphere.
