Customer Reviews
Mercy Watson
My grandchildren love the stories about Mercy Watson. They are entertaining and have food for thought and discussion if desired.
Very nice collection of books
This is a very nice collection of books and I would recommend it for anyone tp purchase. Mercy Watson is an adorable pig and the stories are so precious.
Great "Advanced" Chapter Books
This series is a great set of chapter books for kids who have gotten beyond "early reader" chapter books that also enjoy humor in what they read. The central characters, who make repeat performances in each book, add to the delight of the story because of their offbeat personalities. I am not sure how the author decided to feature a pig that eats toast, but it is pure genius that will delight both the young reader and parents as well. I think I looked forward to the new "Mercy" installments as much as my son did.
