Synopsis Mercy Watson, the irrepressibly round, pink, and perky pig, has a new passion: driving. Mr. and Mrs. Watson enjoy rides in their convertible, and after lots of nudging, cajoling, and affection, they manage to get Mercy out of the driver's seat and into the back, where she can enjoy the breeze in style. But, of course, Mercy does get a chance at the wheel, and when that happens, watch out! With colorful, retro artwork.
Mr. Watson's usual Saturday drive in his Cadillac with his favorite pig, Mercy, turns into an adventure when an unexpected passenger shows up in the back seat and Mercy finds herself behind the wheel.

Industry Reviews "From the toast icons that surround the page numbers, to faux-tape spine, and hilariously gaudy over-the-top illustrations, this is a throw-back in the best sense of the word." (05/15/2006)
