Rande tries her hand at gardening every year with her dads expert guidance, and this is where she came up with the idea about pickles. Rande hopes that as children read this tale of fruits and vegetables, it will spark interest in gardening and healthy eating. She appreciates all the support and encouragement she received from John and her family in writing her first book.

A pickle tries to escape being eaten by fleeing through the city streets, pursued by a variety of other food items.

Even in her dream, mischievous Little Pickle gets in trouble, as she has to be rescued from a rubber raft on the high seas.

Peter picks a million pickles which pop and form a pickle juice pond.

Pete is a perfectly predictable, practical, uncomplicated pig. At least, he was . . . before a runaway circus elephant named Pickles stampeded into his life, needing a friend. Pickles is larger than life and overflowing with imagination. She takes Pete swandiving off Niagara Falls. (Sort of.) And sledding down the Matterhorn. (Sort of.) Pete goes along for the wild ride and actually begins to enjoy himself . . . until Pickles goes too far. And Pete tells her she must leave. Yet sometimes the simple life isn?t all it?s cracked up to be. Pulitzer Prize?winning cartoonist Berkeley Breathed offers two new irresistible characters and a heartfelt, hilarious look at the rarity of true friendship.
