"Pete & Pickles"
A
new children's book by Berkeley Breathed
A few years ago, my daughter drew a pencil sketch of an elephant holding a small pig in the coils of its nose.
I asked her why the pig looked sad. She looked at me like she does her little brother, which is without sympathy. “Because he’s lonely, Dad. But he doesn’t know it.”
As I figured that it was legal, technically, to steal from within my family, I fleshed out her premise into “Pete & Pickles,” my latest picture book. It’s about a deeply unlikely friendship between deeply mismatched individuals. That’s most marriages, of course, but please don’t tell the kids.
We just say it’s a love story.
I hope you enjoy it.
