DiCamillo, Kate. Van Dursen, Chris (Illustrator). Mercy Watson-Something Wonky This Way Comes, 96 pages. Candlewick , 2011. $5.99. Back cover: “ Mr. and Mrs. Watson and their porcine wonder, Mercy, are off to the Bijou Drive. What will happen when a gaggle of familiar characters get the same idea for a night out? With the tempting scent of hot buttered popcorn wafting through the air, everyone’s favorite pig leads the way in this hilarious romp featuring movies, mayhem, and Mercy!” We liked this book! The illustrations were adorable and energetic! The story is fun and easy to read. The book is in chapter form and appropriate for early readers, but some of the names are difficult to pronounce. The ending of the story wasn't as interesting as we thought it could be. EL (K-3). ADVISABLE. Reviewer: SL.
