Mercy Watson Series

DiCamillo, K. (2005). The Mercy Watson Collection. New York: Random House.

         Kate DiCamillo is one of my favorite authors, and she succeeds yet again in the Mercy Watson series. Mercy is a cheery pig that likes to act like a person. He loves driving cars, trick-or-treating, toast with butter, and causing trouble.


         The series has six books, all beautifully illustrated by Chris Van Dusen. These books are a great way to introduce Kate DiCamillo to students, with hopes they will move on to her more difficult, higher level books.
