Missy's back for a second adventure in this spin-off series of the
beloved Mrs. Piggle-Wiggle books from Ann M. Martin and Annie Parnell!
Missy Piggle-Wiggle is finally starting to feel settled in at the
upside-down house, and the families in town have come to trust her
magical cures for all sorts of childhood (mis)behavior, just like her
great-aunt.
But right when everything is going so well, a terrible storm blasts
through Little Spring Valley, damaging the upside-down house. Now the
house is in need of repair (and isn't happy about it one bit), and money
is becoming pretty tight for Missy.
And, on top of that, the children of Little Spring Valley continue to
need Missy's inventive cures, such as the Smarty-Pants Cure, the
Whiney-Whiners Cure, and the Won't-Walk-the-Dog Cure. Luckily, Missy
knows just what to do!
This is a fun and funny adventure for young readers written by
Baby-Sitters Club author Ann M. Martin and Annie Parnell, the great
grand-daughter of Mrs. Piggle Wiggle author Betty MacDonald, with
illustrations by Ben Hatke, the author of the New York
Times-bestselling Zita the Spacegirl Trilogy.

Praise for Missy Piggle-Wiggle and the Won't-Walk-the-Dog-Cure:
The book is delightfully written and full of enchanting characters. Who
wouldn't want a pig who acts as butler and cook to the household? And
who wouldn't want a person to teach children not to shout, whine or
ignore their pets? The illustrations do a grand job of supporting the
humor of the story. -Children's Literature
**Praise for Missy Piggle-Wiggle and the Whatever Cure:

A fun family read-aloud, this version will win new fans without
alienating devotees of the original series. --School Library Journal
"[Mrs. Piggle Wiggle's] singular magic can enchant a new generation,
thanks to this delightful contemporary follow-up from Martin."
