That's NOT A Pickle! is the first book in a series of seven about a boy and his pet frog, both of whom love pickes as much as Popeye loves spinach! In fact, the boy meets the frog in a pickle jar and they become best friends. The boy decides to use the friendship to entertain/scare his disagreeable sister who happens to be frog-phobic. All's fair in pickle jars and frog fairs! This story exemplifies the spontaneous joy of living and teaches young kids the wonderful joy of reading. Written in catchy verse, and illustrated throughout with humorous, colorful illustrations, this story will keep kids ages 3 and up entertained and happy for hours. Phyllis Diller and Jerry Lewis loved it ... and so will YOU!
