Fat Sour Pickle

“Something is odd,”

I grumbled and snickled.

“My tummy’s not normal.

I ALWAYS want pickles.”


I laid my head down,

and closed my eyelids.

and, lickety-split,

to dreamland I slid . . .


In this adorable rhyming story, a nap-time dream helps lift a little boy out of a cranky mood. Dreaming, he travels to a world of talking animals, where he meets 2 pandas, then 3 dolphins, 4 monkeys, and so on, all the way to 10 frogs! Children quickly catch on to the silly rhymes, and parents appreciate the message that naps really are a good thing.


FAT SOUR PICKLE thrills the imagination with its colorful cast of dreamland animals, all who speak their mind on pickles. And the clever rhymes not only sneakily teach numbers 1 to 10, but  slip in lessons on what foods critters truly want to eat.
