Reviews
With power-charged vocabulary, unexpected twists and turns, and glossy cartoon artwork, this rollicking tale is fuel-injected with humor. --SLJ's Curriculum Connections The rich vocabulary of the text, the retro look of the illustrations (including the pink 1959 Cadillac they drive), and the sheer fun of the tale will delight young children. --Childhood Education Fans of Mercy Watson will be happy to hear Kate DiCamillo has a new book in her series. --Detroit Free Press The story is funny and the art is even funnier. --Advocate, The (Baton Rouge) DiCamillo underscores her incredible range with another Mercy Watson book, as silly and satisfying as the first. --San Francisco Chronicle Certain to surprise and delight young readers. --Working Mother Magazine Van Dusen's larger-than-life characters and retro sensibility extend the dry humor of the situation, and his shiny, rainbow-bright gouache art shoots the energy, especially Mercy's, right off the page. Great for emergent readers. --Booklist The second installment in the 'Mercy Watson' series, this choice is certain to produce lots of smiles and laughter. --Syndicated Column - Kendal Rautzhan A fresh, fun-filled must-have for those looking to spiff up beginning-chapter-book collections. --School Library Journal A spirited outing. . . . Chris Van Dusen's spirited illustrations add to the unbridled fun. --Sacramento Bee

Synopsis
A Wall Street Journal 20 Best Children's Books of the Past 20 Years Selection The amiable Mercy Watson takes an automobile ride she'll never forget in the second tale of an ebullient first chapter-book series by Kate DiCamillo and Chris Van Dusen. Mr. and Mrs. Watson's porcine wonder, Mercy, loves nothing more than a ride in the car. 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!, The amiable Mercy Watson takes an automobile ride she'll never forget in the second tale of an ebullient first chapter-book series by Kate DiCamillo and Chris Van Dusen.
