Mrs. Williams' first graders have spent the last few months reading their way through the book series Mercy Watson. Mercy is a “Porcine Wonder” who is adored by almost the entire neighborhood. She loves a good adventure and she especially loves hot, buttered toast. To celebrate finishing the series, their class had a Mercy Watson birthday party complete with none other than…buttered toast.
