. . . . 聊书吧的发帖规则到现在还是没整明白，有问题劳烦版主指正。

不过，还是决定给大家介绍一下这套让我家孩子乐翻天的 Mercy Watson （梅茜小猪）系列这个系列原版共有6本，查了一下，国内好像引进了5本。网上（作者、书的网站、百度）找来的介绍如下：作者：Kate Dicamillo 网站：

Mr. and Mrs. Watson have a pig named Mercy. Mercy enjoys driving cars, going trick-or-treating, and a good chase. But above all else, Mercy enjoys toast with great deal of butter on it. It is her search for toast that often gets Mercy into all kinds of hilarious trouble. There are six fun-filled adventures starring Mercy: Mercy Watson to the Rescue Mercy Watson Goes for a Ride Mercy Watson Fights Crime Mercy Watson Princess in Disguise Mercy Watson Thinks Like A Pig Mercy Watson Something Wonky This Way Comes. From the Author "Mercy Watson had been in my head for a long time," says Kate DiCamillo, "but I couldn’t figure out how to tell her story. One day, my friend Alison was going on and on and on about the many virtues of toast. As I listened to her, I could see Mercy nodding in emphatic agreement. Sometimes you don’t truly understand a character until you know what she loves above all else." 适合年龄： 6-8岁 这套书是孩子的最爱之一，孩子最喜欢的是梅茜这只淘气小猪。看到梅茜每次为了找吃（它最爱牛油烤面包啦，只要是牛油味就会让它“发狂”的

）而惹出的闹剧，总会嘻嘻哈哈的笑。哦，还有邻居两姐妹Eugenia和Baby Lincoln，一位视梅茜如眼中钉，另一位则爱极了梅茜。这对姐妹花更是这系列故事的笑将！看这套书是年前的事了，现在每到图书馆，孩子总会不时跑到放这套书的书架那儿翻翻书。官网上可以看 Sample Pages，还可以下载 Teacher Guides 和 Activities 这个网站还有其中几个故事相关的问答题：

. . . . Mercy Watson to the Rescue

illustrated by Chris Van Dusen Candlewick Press, August 2005

Lexile : 450L

Awards: Pennsylvania Young Reader's Choice Award (Nominated, 2007)

American Library Association Notable Books for Children (Won, 2006)

Beehive Children's Fictional Book Award (Nominated, 2007)

Welcome to the wry and endearing world of Mercy Watson—the beloved "porcine wonder" of the Watson household. In this first episode, the Watsons need rescuing when their bed—after Mercy hops on—begins to slowly sink through the floor. Mercy escapes—"to alert the fire department," her owners assure themselves. But could Mercy have another emergency in mind—like a sudden craving for their neighbors’ sugar cookies?

《小猪梅西救难》： 晚上该睡觉了。可是小猪梅西怕黑，她不想自己睡，她要和沃森夫妇挤在一张床上！没想到，这个决定引来了一场灾难——就在他们各自做着美梦的时候，地板裂了个洞，床掉了下去，悬在了半空中。梅西逃跑了，沃森夫妇却困在那里。梅西会给消防队打电话吗？她能有办法平安救出主人吗？

Reviews Oh, Mercy, what a pig! Mercy is a fat little porker, a beloved member of the Watson family. When Mr and Mrs. Watson sing her a happy morning song, she feels as warm inside as buttered toast. But when the lights go off, Mercy is so scared she gets in bed with the Watsons. The bed breaks under the weight, which leads to a series of hysterical events. The Watsons think Mercy is on the way to call the fire department, when, in fact, she wants to see if next-door neighbor Baby Lincoln has any buttered toast. After another misunderstanding and a merry chase, the firemen arrive--just in time to rescue the Watsons, who are about to fall through the floor. Mercy is a heroine (to the Watsons, at least), resulting in more songs and towers of toast. Appropriate as both a picture book and a beginning reader, this joyful story combines familiar elements (the unexpected heroine, the mean neighbor) with a raucous telling that lets readers in on the joke. Van Dusen's artwork is also spot-on. The gouache illustrations are polished to a sheen and have plenty of heft. The characters are exaggerated with a vintage cartoon flair; Mercy, for instance, looks like a piggy bank that has sprung to life. Another jolly adventure about Mercy is in the works. —Ilene Cooper, Booklist

. . . . Mercy Watson Goes for a Ride

illustrated by Chris Van Dusen Candlewick Press, May 2006

Lexile : 390L

Awards: Giesel Honor book (Won 2007)

Flicker Tale Children's Book Award (Nominated, 2007)

Mr. and Mrs. Watson's porcine wonder, Mercy, loves nothing more than a ride in the car. It takes a fair amount of nudging and bribing and a "You are such a good sport, darling" to get the portly pig out of the driver's seat, but once the convertible is on the road, Mercy loves the feel of the wind tickling her ears and the sun on her snout. One day the Watsons' motoring ritual takes an unexpected turn, however, when their elderly neighbor Baby Lincoln pops up in the backseat in hopes of some "folly and adventure" — and in the chaos that ensues, an exuberant Mercy ends up behind the wheel! Soon there's a policeman on her tail, a struggle for the brake, and a blissfully airborne Mercy. Of course, it's nothing that an extra helping of buttered toast can't fix!

《小猪梅西飞车》： 又到了星期六！沃森先生像往常一样，开着粉色的敞篷车带上小猪梅西出去兜风。梅西觉得光坐车不过瘾，她想要开车！机会终于来了！梅西一屁股坐上了驾驶座，车子开得飞快。小猪飞车会有什么后果呢？车子是谁停下来的呢？

Reviews Another action-packed escapade staring the porcine wonder. Every weekend, when Mr. Watson takes his pig for a ride in his pink convertible, Mercy must be cajoled out of the driver's seat with the promise of a tasty treat upon their return. One Saturday, their elderly neighbor, Baby Lincoln, stows away in the backseat. Man and pig speed happily along until Baby reveals her presence. Surprised, Mr. Watson takes his eyes off the road, and Mercy seizes her chance, jumps into his lap, and grabs the wheel. The vehicle zooms along, pursued by a police car. With Mr. Watson unable to reach the brake, it takes some heroics from Baby to save the day. Back at the house, the ever-serene Mrs. Watson manages to mollify everyone—including Baby's crotchety sister and the angry policeman—with a stack of hot buttered toast. Written with simple vocabulary and lots of repetition, the quick-paced narrative flows gracefully and is packed with amusing moments. The glossy, full-color gouache paintings provide visual clues to support the text and add greatly to the humor. The characters' facial expressions are laugh-out-loud funny, and the idealized 1950s setting strikes just the right tone of innocence. A fresh, fun-filled must-have for those looking to spiff up beginning-chapter-book collections. —Joy Fleishhacker, School Library Journal Mercy the pig, who proved herself a worthy child substitute in ercy Watson to the Rescue (2005), is up to her old tricks again. This time the self-absorbed, endearingly naughty Mercy brings many a child's dream to life: she squeezes herself onto Mr. Watson's lap and commandeers his beloved 1959 pink Caddy for a joyride. Van Dusen's larger-than-life characters and retro sensibility extend the dry humor of the situation, and his shiny, rainbow-bright gouache art shoots the energy, especially Mercy's, right off the page. Great for emergent readers. —Stephanie Zvirin, Booklist

. . . Mercy Watson Fights Crime

illustrated by Chris Van Dusen Candlewick Press, August 2006

Early chapter book, ISBN 0-7636-2590-6

Lexile : 390L

Leroy Ninker is a small man with a big dream: he wants to be a cowboy, but for now he's just a thief. In fact, Leroy is robbing the Watsons' kitchen right this minute! As he drags the toaster across the counter — screeeeeech — and drops it into his bag — clannngggg — little does he know that a certain large pig who loves toast with a great deal of butter is stirring from sleep. Even less could he guess that comedy of errors (not to mention the buttery sweets in his pocket) will soon lead this little man on the wild and raucous rodeo ride he's always dreamed of! Nosy neighbors, astonished firemen, a puzzled policeman, and the ever-doting Watsons return for a new tongue-in-snout adventure about Kate DiCamillo's delightfully single-minded pig.

《小猪梅西抓小偷》： 这个夜晚可是不平静。梅西听见厨房里有响动，以为有人在做吐司，于是来到厨房一探究竟。其实是小偷正在沃森家偷东西！小偷很快发现，偷东西真是得不偿失。因为他遇上了一只奇迹猪！人们会从睡梦中醒来帮助梅西吗？谁是抓小偷的英雄呢？

Read the Reviews Another rollicking adventure starring the porcine wonder. One night, Mercy awakes to the sound of the toaster scraping along the kitchen counter, which can only mean one thing–someone is making toast. Her life revolves around hot buttered toast, so she heads for the kitchen. There she finds a little man in a ten-gallon hat stealing the toaster along with other household items. Hilarity ensues, and all of the familiar characters from the previous books make appearances. Humor abounds in this tale, both the slapstick and more subtle variety, which will keep newly independent readers turning the pages. DiCamillo has creatively woven in the elements that a good easy reader should have: repetition, simple sentence structure, and controlled vocabulary. Van Dusen's stylized illustrations enhance the action through their bright colors and exaggerated appearances of the humans. A great addition. —Elaine Lesh Morgan, Multnomah County Library, Portland, OR, School Library Journal

This silly story makes my nearly 9-year-old son laugh out loud at every reading (yes, it’s been requested multiple times). —Denver Post

Mercy is equally certain she likes the sound of trick-or-treating and can picture those piles of buttered toast already. As for the Lincoln Sisters next door, how could they know that their cat would get into the act and lead them all on a Halloween "parade" of hysterical proportions? Kate DiCamillo’s beguiling pig is back in a tale full of treats, tricky turns, hijinks, and high humor.

Lexile : 380L

《小猪梅西脱险记》读后感寒假里，我和妈妈一起读了两遍《小猪梅西脱险记》，因为我觉得这个故事太有趣了。小猪梅西是故事里的主角，一天，它在院子里与沃森先生、沃森太太一起喝柠檬汁时，闻到了隔壁飘来的花香味。接下来梅西忍不住尝了尝邻居家的三色堇花。那是一种很香又好吃的花。虽然小猪梅西已经打了一个嗝，它还是想吃，直到吃完。邻居尤金尼亚发现了刚吃完花的梅西，非常生气，并打电话给动物管理中心，想让他们把梅西抓走。还不知道危险就要来临的梅西，跟着斯特拉和弗兰克去开茶话会了。动物管理中心的弗朗辛是个很热爱动物的工作人员。她以小猪的思维去想问题。结果她首先找到了小猪梅西，却没有把它抓起来。梅西仍然是自由的。妈妈的话：（1）文中扬扬认为特搞笑的地方：一天，沃森先生和沃森太太谈论着天气真的很不错时，梅西也“哼”了一声，好像是同意天气不错的说法。（2）读第二章，我先提出问题：图中的两个婆婆哪个是姐姐，哪个是妹妹？让张扬根据后面的文章内容辨别出来，他做得很正确。 (3)读到斯特拉和弗兰克邀请梅西一起开茶话会的情形时，我结合小孩子们玩游戏的做法表演给张扬看。（游戏中说的事物都是空想的，不存在的。）张扬评价：小猪梅西有点贪吃，既可爱又有趣。弗朗辛很爱动物，不会伤害小动物。尤金尼亚喜欢惩罚，不肯原谅别人。贝贝是个好心眼的人，肯原谅别人。

. . . . . Mercy Watson Something Wonky This Way Comes

illustrated by Chris Van Dusen Candlewick Press, July 2009

Lexile : 440L

The porcine wonder is off to the drive-in—and driven to follow that buttery smell—in a comic crescendo that reunites a familiar cast of characters. Some may find it wonky to take a pig to the movies. But not Mr. and Mrs. Watson, who think the title of the film, When Pigs Fly, is inspirational. And not their beloved Mercy, who is inspired by the fact that the drive-in proudly serves real butter on its Bottomless Bucket of popcorn. So when they pull up in their convertible, Mercy lifts her snout and becomes a pig on a mission—for what is more heavenly than being hot on the trail of a true butter smell? Masterful slapstick director Kate DiCamillo sends Mercy on a delirious chase, followed by a trail of hapless rescuers whom fans will recognize from prior episodes. And Chris Van Dusen’s comic retro illustrations perfectly capture a nostalgic pastime—along with the newest antics of a charmingly single-minded pig.

Read the Reviews Youngsters are sure to delight in the exploits of this butter-loving pig, savoring DiCamillo's 'wonky in the extreme' text and Van Dusen's energetic, innocent art. —School Library Journal
