A Piglet Named Mercy (Mercy Watson) by Kate DiCamillo, Chris Van Dusen

“The popular early-reader series about Mercy the pig gets an origin story in this delightful picture book. Old friends and new fans will appreciate this; bring on the toast.” —Booklist

Mr. Watson and Mrs. Watson live ordinary lives. Sometimes their lives feel a bit too ordinary. Sometimes they wish something different would happen. And one day it does, when someone unpredictable finds her way to their front door. In a delightful origin story for the star of the Mercy Watson series, a tiny piglet brings love (and chaos) to Deckawoo Drive—and the Watsons’ lives will never be the same.
