See below for English description.
Bienvenue dans le monde sympathique de Mercy Watson, « le meilleur petit cochon » du couple Watson. Dans ce premier livre de la collection, l'affectueux Mercy saute dans le lit des Watson en pleine nuit et, comme Mercy n'est pas un petit cochon, le lit commence à s'enfoncer dans le plancher! S'ils font un seul mouvement brusque dans le lit chambranlant, les Watson vont s'écraser au premier étage. Heureusement, Mercy réussit à s'échapper « pour alerter les pompiers », pense le couple. Mais ce petit cochon espiègle a peut-être une autre urgence en tête... comme une petite fringale que seulement les biscuits au sucre de la voisine peuvent satisfaire!
To Mr. and Mrs. Watson, Mercy is not just a pig ― she’s a porcine wonder. And to the good-natured Mercy, the Watsons are an excellent source of buttered toast, not to mention that buttery-toasty feeling she gets when she snuggles into bed with them. This is not, however, so good for the Watsons’ bed. BOOM! CRACK!
