Mrs. Fickle's Pickles

32 pp. | Boyds | November, 2006 | Trade ISBN 1-59078-195-3 $16.95
(4) PS Illustrated by Nancy Cote. "Mrs. Fickle likes her pickles. / She plants each tiny seed. / Mrs. Fickle likes her pickles. / They're growing fast indeed." The tempo of the minimal, repetitive rhymes doesn't quite match the slower pace of the illustrations, which do most of the storytelling: bright gouache colors show Mrs. Fickle planting and canning cucumbers--and then eating her beloved pickles.
