Synopses & ReviewsPublisher Comments:Oh, Mercy! Pig out on the first six adventures in the New York Times best-selling series, all tucked together in one enticing box—the perfect gift!
Foiling a robber, driving a car, squeezing into a tutu—is there anything the porcine wonder wont do in her single-minded pursuit of treats, buttered toast, or just a rollicking fun time? And who knows what other adventures twinkle in her mischievous eyes? Here, for Mercy Watsons loyal fans and new friends, comes a big fat paperback collection of pig tales that will have readers squealing with delight. Included are: MERCY WATSON TO THE RESCUE MERCY WATSON GOES FOR A RIDE MERCY WATSON FIGHTS CRIME MERCY WATSON: PRINCESS IN DISGUISE MERCY WATSON THINKS LIKE A PIG MERCY WATSON: SOMETHING WONKY THIS WAY COMES Synopsis:Can Mercy Watson outwit . . . Animal Control? The porcine wonders on the lam in her latest tongue-in-snout adventure!
Eugenia and Baby Lincoln may live next door to a pig, but that doesnt stop them from living a gracious life. And the amiable Mercy Watson is equally determined to follow the delightful scent (and delicious taste) of the pansies her thoughtful neighbors are planting to beautify their yard. "Where have all the flowers gone?" shouts Eugenia, who is finally ready to take extreme measures —- and dial Animal Control! Has Mercys swine song come at last? Or will her well-pampered instincts keep her in buttered toast? From the Hardcover edition. About the AuthorKate DiCamillo is the author of the first four stories starring Mercy Watson.
