Purchase options and add-ons

When Mrs. Elmira Deeds waddles into Mr. Adolph’s deli and asks for a pickle, chaos erupts! The pickle escapes from the jar, and a cast of zany characters, including a peanut butter and jelly sandwich and seventeen toasted almonds, joins in the chase to stop the pickle as it attempts to run away. Can anyone stop that pickle?

"The infectious refrain, deadpan humor, and outlandish paintings of anthropomorphized sandwiches, pretzels, and almonds will appeal to youngsters with a taste for the offbeat.” —Booklist Booklist, ALA

5.0 out of 5 stars Go, Pickle, GO!
Reviewed in the United States on January 15, 2003

I got this book on the recommendation of a friend who's a children's librarian. At the time, my son was only a year old. It quickly - try, immediately! - became his favorite. I thought it was rather silly at first, but his response was quick and positive, and pretty soon, we all were laughing over the antics of the Pickle and his pursuers! "Stop Pickle Please" my baby requests on a daily basis. Bedtime is not complete without reading it, and now he even anticipates us - as soon as we turn to the page where the pickle escapes, he cries, "Go, Pickle, GO!" and then "Eeeek!" (like Ms. Elmira Deeds!) and laughs at his own joke. And a few weeks ago, he even looked up from his lunch of peanut butter and jelly and said to me, "Peanut butter has great endurance" in his little baby voice - (he's almost 2 years now). I nearly fell in the floor - I couldn't believe it! This book is terrific, absolutely terrific. The children really get into it, and my son has learned a lot of interesting words and phrases! I highly, highly recommend this book for anyone with small children.

I used to borrow this book from a local library, when we moved, our new library system did not carry this title. My 3 kids loved this book so much that I just had to purchase it. It is a cute story and my kids love for me to use different voices for each food that joins in the hunt to stop that runaway pickle! Very fun story ( first read this to my 3yr old son and 1 yr old daughter..... Now kids are 9,7 and have added another who is now 4) We all still love this book!

My daughter asks to read this every day. In fact, while riding in the car, she loves to randomly shout, "STOP. THAT. PICKLE!"

The only weird thing about this book is some of the wording doesn't roll off your tongue very easily, so sometimes I change a word or two as we read it. Otherwise, it's a fun book, and certain to go into your daily rotation. My daughter has been reading this since she was 2.5, and I could see her enjoying the story for at least a few more years.

Have used this book for years in Preschool - it's a wonderfully interactive story with
a group of young children. They love to shout out the refrain throughout the book and
do so with great enthusiasm. It is a ridiculously funny story for preschool aged children
and invites everyone to join in the fun. Am retired now and wanted to share this
treasure with another teacher.
