Book Description:

Meet Mrs. Piggle-Wiggle! She lives in an upside-down house with a kitchen that is always full of freshly baked cookies. She was even married to a pirate once! Best of all, she knows everything there is to know about children. 

When Mary turns into an Answer-Backer or Dick becomes Selfish or Allen decides to be a Slow-Eater-Tiny-Bite-Taker, Mrs. Piggle-Wiggle has the perfect cure. And her solutions always work, with plenty of laughs along the way. 

Review:

This is a funny book that kids of elementary and middle grade age levels will love. Mrs. Piggle-Wiggle is a woman that all the children in town flock to because she lets the children do all that they love to do, but she also understands the children and cures them of various ailments, such as “Picky-Eater-Tiny-Bite-Taker”. Her cures are silly and extreme and work wonders for all the children and their parents.
