Book Description
Ms. Piggle-Wiggle's left her upside-down town house and has moved to a farm in the country. With the help of her cows and pigs and horses, she's still curing girls and boys of their bad habits. So whatever the problem-from pet forgetter-itis to fraidycat-ness-the parents all exclaim, "Better call Mrs. Piggle-Wiggle!"
About the Author
When Betty MacDonald married and moved to a small farm on the Olympic Peninsula in the State of Washington, she was largely unprepared for the rigors of life in the wild. No running water, no electricity, a house in need of constant repair, and days that ran from four in the morning to nine at night, with barely a moment to put one's feet up. And this was before the children arrived. But the MacDonalds managed to keep their sense of humor, and this account of their adventures with the house and with neighbors is an endearing frontier classic.

a classic,

This review is from: Mrs. Piggle Wiggle's Farm (School & Library Binding)
i must say, i grew up reading mrs. piggle wiggle books. my parents would read them to me and i found them hysterically funny. now that i am an adult, i still find parts of them funny that i didn't really notice as a young child. very fun books, for both families and for the young at heart. and i guess the messages sent still are as clear as crystal - be a good person, and for god's sake, don't let your child become a supernanny case. supernanny is great, but in all honesty, all you need is mrs. piggle wiggle.

Read this!,

This review is from: Mrs. Piggle-Wiggle's Farm (Paperback)
This is the last of the four Mrs Piggle-Wiggle books, but it was probably my favourite when I was little - I loved horses as a little girl, and these stories include a pony. My parents read the Mrs Piggle-Wiggle books when they were kids, and these books have been a family tradition.The stories aren't coy about the fact that they set out to show how kids ought to behave, but they're so much fun that I don't think anyone minds that they teach a lesson. After all, who minds when Mrs. Piggle Wiggle is the teacher? These stories, unlike those in the other 3 books, are set on a farm, and teach kids about responsibilty, self-reliance, and trust. Read them if you have kids, read them if you don't have kids. Just read them!

A children's classic,

This review is from: Mrs. Piggle-Wiggle's Farm (Paperback)
I grew up reading the Mrs. Piggle-Wiggle series. I loved every single story and I still remember them vividly. They may be a little dated but the lessons are still current and they are still very amusing.
