Pickin' Peas

32 pp. | HarperCollins | January, 1998 | Trade ISBN 0-06-027235-X | Library ISBN 0-06-027970-2
(4) K-3 Little Girl harvests the biggest peas from her garden only to have pesky Mr. Rabbit follow in her footsteps "eating up all the peas she'd left behind." Though she captures him in one fell swoop, the rabbit escapes in a not-so-believable act of trickery that renders Little Girl more gullible than her character suggests. Savvy illustrations give this story (an elaboration on a tale published in 1897) a contemporary beat.
