Pickle Things
'Pickle Things' is my all-time favorite children's book. The rhyme is fun, silly and can be used to entice children to use their imaginations to think of other things the pickle can do. It starts with, "Pickle thing you never see, like pickles on a Christmas tree. One of my classes decorated our classroom tree with all pickle ornaments that the children designed and then when winter vacation came they could take their ornaments home. The children came up with the idea of how they wanted to decorate the tree. Each time we read this fun book the children sit and giggle all the way to the end and often my preschoolers will act out parts of the book during free play time, which is a sign of the development of higher level thinking skills and pre-reading skills.

This book was a favorite of both my girls as they were growing up first as it was being read to them then later as they were reading it themselves. Now I have bought this copy because my husband used to read it to our grand children and now since he has passed away I thought it might be a wonderful reminder of him! Wonderful silly story that kids love. I highly recommend.

5.0 out of 5 stars The Perfect Book!
Reviewed in the United States on September 28, 2010

I am a preschool teacher. A few years ago, a little boy asked if I knew the "pickle song"...I didn't (and neither did his mom). I told him I'd try to find a pickle song but turned up not one appropriate for a preschool child. So, I made one up. He told me, after I sang it, that it was the one! (Little children are easily pleased). All this led to "pickle day" for my class and has continued through the past few years. I never could find just the right book to read to the class on "Pickle Day". This summer, one of my students found "Pickle Things" at her library and had her mom keep renewing it until she saw me late in the summer. She just knew I'd love it....and I DID. I came home, looked it up on Amazon and found that it was out of print BUT copies were still available from private sellers. I ordered one and am SO happy to have it in my collection. It is the perfect story for little people and for the ones who aren't so little but have a love of a fun story with very cute illustrations. Wishing it would be republished for a whole new generation to enjoy.

I’ve loved this book ever since reading it to my children 30 years ago! I have a granddaughter now, and was thrilled to see I could still buy this book. Bigger than the original copy I had and the pictures are nice and vibrant. I love it!

This book came in perfect condition. I bought this for my SIL. She’d been looking for it for a long time. She was so glad I found it for her! It’s one of her childhood memories. I read it before I gave it to her. It’s so funny and my kids loved it! I think I’d better get a copy for us. 😂

Used to read this with my grandma when I was little. I was so excited to see it back in print as I'd been combing through every used bookstore to find another copy of it. Bought it to read to my niece and nephews and they enjoy it, too! Nephew is almost to the 'learning to read' stage so this will be a good first book for him to learn on as there are only a sentence or two per page and lots of context clues. Received quickly in perfect condition. Many reviews complain that it reads sky height instead of sky high but that's technically not wrong. Something can be my height, your height, mailbox height, or sky height. I think it's just a linguistic difference but to each their own.

Pickle things we never see
Like pickles on a pickle tree!

This is just a book of silly things (that are pickles) that we never, ever see. "We never see a pickle walk. We never hear a pickle talk."

The illustrations are what sell the book, with the grimaces the kids make as they try to stomach things like pickle cake, or deal with pickle hair.

This is an easy reader book, and sure to be funny enough to capture even the most reluctant child.
