MRS. PIGGLE-WIGGLE'S MAGIC

The Mrs. Piggle-Wiggle stories are quirky period pieces loved by children. No matter that the families are dated and that her solutions to problems so outrageous. Fans delight in the universality of children and enjoy the magic in Mrs. Piggle-Wiggle's cures. This offering in MacDonald’s quartet finds tattletales, atrocious manners, and interrupting high on the list of bad habits. Karen White is a fine narrator. She adds just the right amount of adult or child to her voice for each character and the right tempo for the speaker at hand. All the while, the story moves purposefully to its conclusion. White is as no-nonsense as Mrs. Piggle-Wiggle herself. A.R. © AudioFile 2005, Portland, Maine [Published: JUNE/JULY 05]
