Mercy Watson Princess in Disguise (2007) Kate DiCamillo (Author) Chris Van Dusen (Illustrator)
It's Halloween night in this fourth installment of the Mercy Watson chapter books for beginning readers. While Mr. and Mrs. Watson envision Mercy as a porcine princess, the pig is all about the treats, and if getting treats means dressing up in a gown with a tiara, then so be it. Knowing Mercy's penchant for trouble, it's no surprise that this Halloween will be one to remember. It all starts out with the Lincoln's new cat, George Washington, who runs away, starting a chase with Mercy, Baby Lincoln, Eugenia Lincoln, Mr. and Mrs. Watson, and fellow trick-or-treaters Frank and Stella. And when George Washington climbs up a tree, but doesn't unclimb, it's that dynamic duo of firefighters, Ned and Lorenzo, to the rescue.
