<p/><br></br><p><b> About the Book </b></p></br></br>A storm, damage to the upside-down house and children behaving badly... What's Missy Piggle-Wiggle to do? The second book in a middle-grade spin-off series of the wildly popular Mrs. Piggle-Wiggle books, about a young nanny in a world where magic can solve problems.<p/><br></br><p><b> Book Synopsis </b></p></br></br><p><b>Missy's back for a second adventure in this spin-off series of the beloved Mrs. Piggle-Wiggle books from Ann M. Martin and Annie Parnell!</b> <p/>Missy Piggle-Wiggle is finally starting to feel settled in at the upside-down house, and the families in town have come to trust her magical cures for all sorts of childhood (mis)behavior, just like her great-aunt. <p/>But right when everything is going so well, a terrible storm blasts through Little Spring Valley, damaging the upside-down house. Now the house is in need of repair (and isn't happy about it one bit), and money is becoming pretty tight for Missy. <p/>And, on top of that, the children of Little Spring Valley continue to need Missy's inventive cures, such as the Smarty-Pants Cure, the Whiney-Whiners Cure, and the Won't-Walk-the-Dog Cure. Luckily, Missy knows just what to do! <p/>This is a fun and funny adventure for young readers written by Baby-Sitters Club author Ann M. Martin and Annie Parnell, the great grand-daughter of Mrs. Piggle Wiggle author Betty MacDonald, with illustrations by Ben Hatke, the author of the <i>New York Times</i>-bestselling Zita the Spacegirl Trilogy. <p/><b>Read the whole series!<br></b><i>Missy Piggle-Wiggle and the Whatever Cure<br>Missy Piggle-Wiggle and the Won't-Walk-the-Dog-Cure<br>Missy Piggle-Wiggle and the Sticky-Fingers Cure <p/></i><b>Praise for <i>Missy Piggle-Wiggle and the Won't-Walk-the-Dog-Cure</i>: <p/></b>The book is delightfully written and full of enchanting characters.
