Children are so curious about the world around them. They come up with so many exciting questions. What's a Pickle Before It's a Pickle? invites children to use prior knowledge and guess how some very familiar things come to be. Just what was that pickle before we buy them in a jar? When they turn the page, they can be surprised, or maybe be excited that they knew the answer. It is written in rhyme to make it fun and energetic, providing an opening for the children to read along by catching on to some of the rhyming words, perhaps even finishing some of the sentences!

Little Penelope Petunia Pine wishes she could be great at something. She sees how her friends are so talented in sports, dance class, and even singing in chorus. Although she loves playing with her friends and does enjoy soccer, dancing, and singing, she thinks about how she never scores a goal in soccer and how she can never be in step with the graceful rhythm in her dance classes. She certainly doesn't want to think about her notes coming later than everyone else while singing in chorus! What little Penelope does not realize, however, is that her very own amazing eyes are already helping her be great at something very important. In the story The Amazing Eyes of Penelope Pine, we get to follow along with Penelope and see just how her dream comes true. We may also discover, along the way, that we are just a little bit like Penelope and that our eyes are helping us do some pretty amazing things too!
