Happy Birthday, Mrs. Piggle-Wiggle (Mrs. Piggle-Wiggle #5)
Reading Level: 4th − 5th Grade

Mrs. Piggle-Wiggle is back with a brand-new bundle of wonderfully magical cures for any bad habit--from watching too much TV to picky eating to fear of trying new things. With a little help from her pets, Wag the dog, Lightfoot the cat, and Lester the pig--and a trunk full of magnificent powders and potions--she can solve any problem, big or small. And while Mrs. Piggle-Wiggle is working her magic, the children are working some of their own, planning a boisterous birthday bash for everyone's favorite problem solver!

Just in time for the sixtieth anniversary of the original Mrs. Piggle-Wiggle comes a healthy dose of comedy and adventure to delight a whole new generation of readers.

It’s been 50 years since the maternal über-parent’s last new offering of magically effective cures for childhood contretemps, but neither Mrs. Piggle-Wiggle nor her adoring young neighbors (nor their issues) have aged a day in this fresh set—one chapter composed (but never published) by Betty and the rest by her daughter.
