INTERMEDIATE FICTION
Ferguson, Pamela Ellen

Sunshine Picklelime

(4) 4-6 Illustrated by Christian Slade. PJ Picklelime, who can talk with birds, lives in a sunny village filled with cheery international neighbors. As the tale continues, though, readers see that all is not as sweet as it appears. The drama feels a little piled on, but readers will enjoy PJ's sometimes bittersweet and slightly magical personal journey. Youngish-looking black-and-white illustrations accompany the story.
