Book Overview

"Halloween was made for carefree Mercy Watson." -- School Library Journal

When the Watsons decide to zip their porcine wonder into a formfitting princess dress for Halloween -- complete with tiara -- they are certain that Mercy will be beautiful beyond compare. Mercy is equally certain she likes the sound of trick-or-treating and can picture piles of buttered toast already. As for the Lincoln Sisters next door, how could...

Loved it!

Amazing cute story! We loved Mercy Watson Princess in Disguise.

We loved it!

We loved this one so much that we went out to the library the next day to find the others. My son read them in no time and wanted to read them over again-something he hasn't wanted to do in a long time. Love it!!!!

Mercy Watson Series

My 7 year old daughter received the first book in the series last year for Christmas and she has been hooked ever since. It was the one thing that she asked Santa for this year. The books are funny, lighthearted with a heart warming heroine.

Mercy Watson

My 4 year old picked up Mercy Watson from the library counter and we have fallen in love. I'm really not sure which I love more --- text or illustrations? Text wins ONLY because were it not for the idea there would be no illustrations. We read a minimum of one a day. I've got them all sitting in the closet waiting for her birthday --- she will be thrilled to KEEP them instead of just checking them out. There is one danger though with this series ---- I've had to explain that "toast with a great deal of butter on it" is really not the best breakfast option. We have done it though --- on a blue plate no less. But it's a "special" event when she gets to play the pig. The other day she was "narrowing her eyes" as she decided to scoot over in a seat. Cracks me up. All of this is from the series --- the books are beautifully interwoven. And Chris Van Dusen's illustrations deserve accolades as well. I found myself flipping from book to book and from one illustration to another to see if I could catch a mistake. They are illustrated photographs I swear. He captured our hearts ---- we ordered his books (A camping spree with Mr. Magee, Down to the Sea with Mr. Magee, If I Built a Car) and would highly recommend them all. Cute books --- great rhyming. The Magee books are the best but we got a kick out of finding Mr. Magee and Dee (his dog) pictured in the If I Built a Car book. We own all of Mo Willems' stuff ---- I didn't need yet another illustrator and series to be so enthralled with!

Fun and entertaining.

Mercy Watson Princess in Disguise is yet another grand slam for Kate Dicamillo! Our favorite domestic pig, Mercy, experiences the joys of butterball candy and trick or treating. Great fun for kids of all ages.

Full-page color drawings by Chris Van Dusen are hilarious accompaniments

Kate DiCamillo's MERCY WATSON: PRINCESS IN DISGUISE is the fourth pig tale in the best-selling series: this centered around Halloween on Deckawoo Drive, and the perfect costume for Mercy. Full-page color drawings by Chris Van Dusen are hilarious accompaniments to the story of a pink pig who tries to become a princess on Halloween.
