Once in a generation, the Effluvia strikes and it affects everyone differently. Missy wakes one morning to find the upside-down house is . . . right-side up? It's not long before Missy has to quarantine the house. Meanwhile she's still fielding calls from worried parents, and Louie can't keep his sticky fingers from taking other people's things! But Missy's magic cure might just do the trick, and even teach some valuable lessons along the way.

Missy Piggle Wiggle helps parents everywhere deal with their children’s misbehaviors. Even though the effluvia has struck her upside down house and turned it right side up and she has had to go under quarantine, she is still fielding calls and helping parents everywhere with her clever cures.

The author uses humor and embedded non didactic lessons as she creates relatable characters that reads in grade 4-6 will love. The reader will come to understand that the clever cures conjured by the main character are really just a way to make the offender see his or her behavior in a new way. This book could also be used as a classroom read aloud. ( )
