"The only thing I don't like about these books is, as a mother, I hoped that I could actually get some points I could use. But magic, unfortunately, is not real, so floating papers, invisible paint, regurgitating drawers and surfaces, and dogs that brush their own teeth can't help me cure my own children's --itis and --- disease. However, with enough imagination, I might be able to apply Mrs. PiggleWiggle's cures in a more mundane manner. Otherwise, I love the idea that somewhere there's an adult who completely understands children!"

" While there are noticeable differences between this one and the previous four actually written by Betty McDonald, we still enjoyed this one tremendously. It was a very fun read aloud. "
— Shiloah, 2/16/2014" Not as good as the originals, but the cures were more timely to kids nowadays. "
— Allison, 2/9/2014" Great series of books by a master storyteller--this is not the best tho' "
— Catherine, 2/8/2014" Who doesn't love Mrs. Piggle Wiggle?! "
— Janelle, 1/29/2014" The Mrs. Piggle-Wiggle books were among some of my most treasured books growing up. I was thrilled with the new publication and estatic that the stories were as wonderful as the originals. I seriously think Mrs. Piggle-Wiggle was the original "Super Nanny"! "
— Jeanette, 1/20/2014" I read this book because my boy, Jake really liked it. I remember reading Mrs. Piggle Wiggle books when I was his age and enjoyed seeing him getting into it. "
— Stacey, 1/18/2014" I absolutely adored these books when I was younger. Age six or seven, I started reading these books, and I've never stopped loving them. <3! "
— Georgie, 1/13/2014" So disappointing. I appreciate the effort by Betty MacDonald's daughter but they did a very poor job of capturing her wit and voice. Mediocre at best. "
— Lupine, 1/12/2014" I've been reading these with my daughter, who's teacher has been reading them in class. They're excellent little books about a magic grandma-type woman in the neighborhood who all the parents turn to for help with their children's bad manners. Very fun! "
— Camie, 1/11/2014" This was such a fun and enjoyable book. I finished it really quickly becasue it was so entertaining. Would be a fun birthday gift for students. "
— Ashton, 1/10/2014" While I love Mrs. Piggle-Wiggle book, I was a little disappointed in this book. My understanding is that it was written by one of her daughters of stories her mom told them as children (as with the other Mrs. Piggle-Wiggle book), but something was missing though I couldn't put my finger on it.
