Description: Last winter Mrs. Piggle-Wiggle bought a farm with a little white house and a large red barn. Every day she enjoys taking care of her horse, parrot, pigs, and other animals. But her favorite times are when boys and girls come to stay. Whenever the youngsters from town have bad habits that won't go away, their parents call on Mrs. Piggle-Wiggle. With the animals' help - and sometimes a touch of magic - she cures frightful cases of "pet forgetter-itis" "fraidycat-ness", or "can't find it-itis." Children everywhere adore the grandmotherly lady, especially the ones who have tried her fun-filled treatments. The hilarious Mrs. Piggle-Wiggle stories continue to captivate generation after generation of young readers. Betty MacDonald's whimsical approach to childhood troubles and John McDonough's animated performance will keep youngsters laughing out loud from the first page to the last.
