Missy Piggle Wiggle and the Whatever Cure was a pure joy to read front to back.Mrs. Piggle Wiggle has disappeared in search of her pirate husband, and in her sted, Missy Piggle Wiggle is taking up the mantle as caretaker of the infamous Upside Down House, and she’s very well versed in magic, particularly the kind of magic that can help deal with kids and their poor habits. Throughout her time at the Upside Down House, she helps the neighborhood kids kick all their terrible habits to the delight of the parents, and towards the end, Missy and the kids even get the chance to bestow some wisdom upon the parents.While remaining true to the original sense of wonder and wackiness of the original series, Missy Piggle Wiggle provides a nice update to the world and characters. Everything is so imaginative it’s sure to inspire curiosity and wonder in those who read it (parents included!) For the kids, numerous important lessons are taught in a funny way that will hopefully stick (it sure works for the many zany kids populating the book). Something I also really enjoyed about Missy Piggle Wiggle is that it doesn’t shy away from teaching the parents a lesson about making time for their kids and the importance of sharing things with one another.100% Would recommend to anyone looking to read with their children and have them set off on their own reading adventure!
I was a big fan of the Mrs. Piggle-Wiggle books as a kid, and bought this book with the hopes of getting a nice dose of nostalgia, and boy did it deliver. As a kid, I loved the whimsical world of the upside-down-house and Mrs. Piggle Wiggle's chest of magical cures. The books were sweet and funny and the 'cures' for misbehaving children were always unique and surprising, such as The Interrupting Cure which was a special powder that when blown onto the interruptor causes them to go mute whenever they try to interrupt (something I wish I owned during particularly arduous staff meetings). I was delighted to see that Missy Piggle-Wiggle and the Whatever Cure kept the same joyous, sweet tone, and the 'cures' were equally unique and fun, such as Bubble of Apology that was given to Frankfort Freeforall (the names!). As for the the illustrations, forget about it. They are so adorable that I wanted to crawl right into the pages and spend some time with Lester the pig and Wag the dog. This is a wonderful book for kids, but even us adults can't help but to get caught up in the fun. And who doesn't need a 'How-Are-You-Doing' pill every so often to remind ourselves to check in with those around us to see how they're doing?
Missy Piggle Wiggle and the Whatever Cure is such a fun book. Missy is the niece of Mrs. Piggle Wiggle and takes over helping “cure” the children of Little Spring Valley after receiving an urgent letter from her aunt who has decided to finally go find her missing husband. Ann Martin creates a vivid picture of the characters and situations the characters find themselves in.My eight-year-old daughter loves me reading this book to her and has even noticed a few of these traits in herself. I think most parents will be able to relate to the “conditions” these children have and will wish for some of these cures to use themselves. I’m actually even picking up some parenting tips and considering using the “One More Minute Cure” and wish I had the watch for “The Tardiness Cure”.I had so much fun reading this book with my daughter. A couple of times I even caught her reading ahead on her own because she couldn’t wait to find out what was going to happen next. I highly recommend this book and cannot wait for future books – I hope, hope, hope!
Missy Piggle-Wiggle and the Whatever Cure is smart, funny and perfect for a family read. It’s one of those books that anyone (parents and children) can find relatable. For those who were a fan of the Mrs. Piggle-Wiggle books, this adaptation is a wonderful take on the original series. The illustrations are imaginative, making it an all-around must buy!
LOVE this book. As a parent educator who works with lots of families, I am going to recommend this to all of the families I work with because it facilitates discussion between parents and their kids when it comes to typical childhood challenges around social skills, behaviors and mistakes that kids (and parents) commonly make and illustrates creative ideas for how to resolve some of these issues. Written in a humorous and whimsical manner, parents and kids alike will relate to these issues including attention seeking, difficulties in sharing, bossiness and generally insensitive behaviors. It has as many important lessons for parents as for children and is destined to be a family favorite!
Wonderful family read! Harks back to the classic MRS. PIGGLE-WIGGLE series while finding a contemporary heroine in great-niece Missy Piggle-Wiggle. At once nostalgic and renewed, old-fashioned and fresh, whimsical and insightful, joyful and edifying... Children will relate to the characters—the emotional content underlying their habits is universal—and parents will appreciate MISSY PIGGLE-WIGGLE AND THE WHATEVER CURE's sleight-of-hand capacity to start conversation between them and their children about aspects of behavioral psychology, causality, and more. The book is sure to help kids explore ideas and engage in self-reflection in an accessible manner. Charming, fanciful illustrations throughout. Can't wait to share with my niece and nephew!
