Mercy Watson: Something Wonky This Way Comes

<b>The porcine wonder is off to the drive-in &#151; and driven to follow that buttery smell &#151; in a comic crescendo that reunites a familiar cast of characters.</b><br><br>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<i> </i>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 &#150; 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 that fans will recognize from prior episodes. And Chris Van Dusen&#146;s comic retro illustrations perfectly capture a nostalgic pastime &#150; along with the newest antics of a charmingly single-minded pig.
