Mercy Watson to the Rescue

To Mr. & Mrs. Watson, Mercy is not just a pig–she's a porcine wonder. And to the portly and good-natured Mercy, the Watson's are an excellent source of buttered toast, no to mention that buttery-toast feeling she gets when she snuggles in to bed with them. This is not, however so good for the Watsons' bed. BOOM! CRACK! Welcome to the wry and endearing world of Mercy Watson.

Mercy Watson Goes for a Ride

Mr. and Mrs. Watson's porcine wonder, Mercy, loves nothing more than a ride in the car. It takes a fair amount of nudging and bribing and a "You are such a good sport, darling" to get the portly pig out of the driver's seat, but once the convertible is on the road, Mercy loves the feel of the wind tickling her ears and the sun on her snout.

Editorial Reviews

About the Author

Kate DiCamillo is the author of the first three stories starring Mercy Watson. She is also the author of The Tale of Despereaux, which won the Newbery Medal; Because of Winn-Dixie, which received a Newbery Honor; The Tiger Rising, a National Book Award Finalist; and The Miraculous Journey of Edward Tulane, winner of a Boston Globe-Horn Book Award. She lives in Minneapolis.

From AudioFile

Mercy is no ordinary pig. She is the "porcine wonder" who delights in hot buttered toast and can do no wrong in the eyes of Mr. and Mrs. Watson. And serendipity is also on Mercy's side--whether it be as the bed crashes through the second floor or the convertible travels a mite too fast. Ron McLarty takes this beginning chapter book to soaring heights. His tone and inflection bring life to the simplest of sentences and unlock the wonders of nuance for the listener. His pacing validates each character and action. Laugh as the police officer has a conversation with himself and as Baby Lincoln takes the sails right out of her sister's proclamation. It's a pleasure to sit down at the Watsons' table! A.R. Winner of AudioFile Earphones Award © AudioFile 2006, Portland, Maine-- Copyright © AudioFile, Portland, Maine

Kate DiCamillo’s writing journey has been a truly remarkable one. She grew up in Florida and moved to Minnesota in her twenties, when homesickness and a bitter winter led her to write Because of Winn-Dixie — her first published novel, which became a runaway bestseller and snapped up a Newbery Honor. The Tiger Rising, her second novel, was also set in Florida and went on to become a National Book Award finalist. Since then, the best-selling author has explored settings as varied as a medieval castle and a magician’s theater while continuing to enjoy great success, winning two Newbery Medals and being named National Ambassador for Young People’s Literature. She now has over 50 million books in print worldwide.
