Add a CommentThis book isn’t as good as the first two, but there’s still a bit of magic and childhood wonder in it. The stories are fun to read, and even more ‘ailments’ of childhood are addressed, with simple, yet clever solutions.
The joy of Mrs. Piggle-Wiggle’s cures is that they are so effective. From curing a fraidy-cat to helping a boy who takes apart (‘fixes’) things without putting them back together and showing him just how irresponsible and dangerous it is to not really fix things, by make them worse.
The children all still love Mrs. Piggle-Wiggle, and so do I. Children will likely want this book read over and over, and perhaps thy will think about their own behaviors and habits as well.
