HAPPY BIRTHDAY, MRS. PIGGLE-WIGGLE

Mrs. Piggle-Wiggle is back! Her cures, including ones for unbrushed teeth, watching too much television, and rude boys are as delightful as her cures in earlier books. New twists in this book are engaging. Who knew that Mrs. Piggle-Wiggle's dog, Wag, can brush his teeth or that Mrs. Piggle-Wiggle knows about glow-in-the-dark ink and magic crystals? In a grand finale, families from each of the episodes join in a celebration distinctively Piggly-Wiggly. Karen White is an unobtrusive narrator who lets each episode engage the listener. She sets a steady pace and creates distinctive characters. Mrs. Piggle-Wiggle is brisk and authoritative, parents are distraught and exasperated, children are irritating and endearing.
