Publisher: Candlewick Press, December 22, 2009. But could Mercy possibly have another emergency in mind - like a sudden craving for their neighbors' sugar cookies? Welcome to the wry and endearing world of Mercy Watson - an ebullient character for early chapter-book readers in a series that's destined to be a classic.Īuthor: Kate DiCamillo | Illustrator: Chris Van Dusen BOOM! CRACK! As the bed and its occupants slowly sink through the floor, Mercy escapes in a flash - to alert the fire department, her owners assure themselves. A great way to introduce kids to the fabulous. This is not, however, so good for the Watsons' bed. FROM THE PUBLISHER: Mercy is a porcine wonder and very loved by the Watson family. And to the portly and good-natured Mercy, the Watsons are an excellent source of buttered toast, not to mention that buttery-toasty feeling she gets when she snuggles into bed with them. All the Mercy Watson books are perennial favorites around our house and get re-read every few months by both my older girls (ages 6 and 7). Watson, Mercy is not just a pig - she's a porcine wonder. The first adventure of this New York Times best-selling porcine wonder is available in paperback.
