Brief reviews and thoughts about children's and young adult books by Minnesota authors (or illustrators), or about Minnesota.

Mercy Watson to the Rescue
Mr. and Mrs. Watson have a pig named Mercy, who is the center of their affection. One night Mercy decides that she doesn't want to sleep in her own bed, so she snuggles up with the Watsons.

Read this first title in the Mercy Watson series by Kate DiCamillo to discover who's the hero.
