Mercy Watson

"As the final book in the beloved Mercy Watson universe, this will lure fans like a certain pig sniffing out buttered toast." --Booklist (starred review) When Mercy Watson the pig goes missing, all of Deckawoo Drive is in an uproar. The Watsons are inconsolable, and the local police department, fire department, and Animal Control are no help whatsoever. Bossy neighbor Eugenia Lincoln is not quite as sad as she might be, but thankfully her sister, Baby Lincoln, has the idea to hire a private investigator. Granted, Percival Smidgely, PI, may be more bumbler than gumshoe, but his pigeon, Polly, is there to point the way. Meanwhile, Frank and Stella Endicott and Stella's friend Horace Broom are ready to do some investigating of their own. Will the clever neighborhood sleuths manage to follow the trail of hoofprints--and a certain overwhelmingly enticing scent--to recover their porcine wonder? With deftly paced narrative comedy, visual slapstick, abundant artwork in both black and white and

《Mercy Watson》是由紐伯瑞文學金獎作家Kate DiCamillo撰寫，Chris Van Dusen繪製的一系列橋梁書。小豬梅西·沃森(Mercy Watson)是該系列中的主角。沃森夫婦把小豬沃森稱為「豬的奇蹟」。小豬沃森喜歡烤麵包和奶油，真的很喜歡吐司麵包上有很多奶油。打擊壞蛋、像豬一樣思考、救援任務、變裝成公主、兜風...有甚麼是她做不到的呢？本套書包含以下6個故事--Mercy Watson Fights Crime 打擊犯罪Leroy Ninker is a small man with a big dream: he wants to be a cowboy, but for now he's just a thief. In fact, Leroy is robbing the Watsons' kitchen right this minute! As he drags the toaster across the counter — screeeeeech — and drops it into his bag — clannngggg — little does he know that a certain large pig who loves toast with a great deal of butter is stirring from sleep. Even less could he guess that comedy of errors (not to mention the buttery sweets in his pocket) will soon lead this little man on the wild and raucous rodeo ride he's always dreamed of! Nosy neighbors, astonished firemen, a puzzled policeman, and the ever-doting Watsons return for a tongue-in-snout adventure about Kate DiCamillo's delightfully single-minded pig.Mercy Watson Thinks Like a P

Eugenia Lincoln declines, a bit rudely, to accompany on her accordion, and Horace Broom is too busy studying planetary movement.
