This is not, however, so good for the Watson's bed. BOOM! CRACK!

It takes a fair amount of nudging and bribing and a \"You are such a good sport, darling\" to get the portly pig out of the driver's seat, but once the convertible is on the road, Mercy loves the feel of the wind tickling her ears and the sun on her snout. One day the Watsons' motoring ritual takes an unexpected turn, however, when their elderly neighbor Baby Lincoln pops up in the backseat in hopes of some \"folly and adventure\" -- and in the chaos that ensues, an exuberant Mercy ends up behind the wheel! Soon there's a policeman on her tail, a struggle for the brake, and a blissfully airborne Mercy. Of course, it's nothing that an extra helping of buttered toast can't fix!\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"The Bookshelf","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":52741282300221,"sku":"9780763645052","price":6.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0695\/3235\/2829\/files\/MercyWatson2.jpg?v=1785517289"},{"product_id":"mercy-watson-3","title":"Mercy Watson Fights Crime (Mercy Watson #3)","description":"\u003cp\u003eA Wall Street Journal 20 Best Children's Books of the Past 20 Years Selection\u003cbr\u003e\n\"Another rollicking addition starring the porcine wonder. . . .

In fact, Leroy is robbing the Watsons' kitchen right this minute! As he drags the toaster across the counter -- screeeeeech -- and drops it into his bag -- clannngggg -- little does he know that a certain large pig who loves toast with a great deal of butter is stirring from sleep. Even less could he guess that comedy of errors (not to mention the buttery sweets in his pocket) will soon lead this little man on the wild and raucous rodeo ride he's always dreamed of!
