About This Book
A parent might reach for this book when their early reader needs a dose of pure, uncomplicated fun to build reading confidence and joy. This is for the child who loves slapstick humor and isn't looking for a heavy lesson, just a good laugh. In this installment of the popular series, Mr. and Mrs. Watson's beloved pig, Mercy, is dressed as a princess for Halloween. Lured by the promise of treats, she comically crashes the neighbors' party, leading to a series of hilarious misunderstandings. The story celebrates the unconditional love of family (even when your child is a pig), the silliness of everyday adventures, and the joy of being exactly who you are. Its vibrant illustrations and simple, witty text make it a perfect bridge to chapter books.
