Customer Reviews

Mercy Watson or anything by Kate Dicamillo is a hit around here.

My kids LOVE all of Kate Dicamillo's books. My youngest children really love Mercy Watson so when I saw this book was available I had to buy it. Easy to follow, fun story, nice illustrations, another hit by Kate Dicamillo. Thanks for putting out such wonderful work Kate!

Highly recommend

I bought this book on a recommendation of a parenting magazine. Quality short chapter book, and my 5-year-old son loves it.

Fun and hilarious adventure

Kate DiCamillo's MERCY WATSON FIGHTS CRIME provides the third pig tale in the series. Here Mercy hears a noise and discovers a thief is robbing the Watsons - a cowboy thief whose 'yippie-I-oh' can both lull a sleep to pig and wake up a sleeping household. Color drawings by Chis Van Dusen add fun and hilarious adventure to the tale.

Great Book

My 7 year of old son loves this series. Looking forward to more of them.
