Book Reviews of Pete & Pickles

Book Review: Another home run!
Summary: 5 Stars

The only thing I don't like about Berkeley Breathed is that he doesn't produce more instant classics like this. He is the Dr. Seuss of the 21st century. He is so good that I find it frustrating that there are not more of his books to buy.

"Pete and Pickles" is another combination of brilliant art and meaningful story telling. Most children's books are read once and chucked. "Pete and Pickles", however, is one I revisit often to read to my kids. If they would let me, I would probably be reading it to them while they are in high school.

If you haven't hopped on the Berkeley Breathed wagon yet, check out "Edwurd Fudwupper Fibbed Big," "The Last Basselope: One Ferocious Story", "Goodnight Opus", "Flawed Dogs", and "Mars Needs Moms". All are so creative, thoughtful, and charming that your children will love and learn from them over and over.
