The Pickle-Chiffon Pie Olympics

64 pp. | Purple | May, 2011 | Trade ISBN 978-1-930900-52-3 $18.95
(3) K-3 This decades-later sequel to Pickle-Chiffon Pie has a king insisting that his daughter marry not her beloved but the winner of a contest named for the castle delicacy. Part William Steig and part Monty Python ("the ten-mile bicycle race [was] made harder by the fact that bicycles hadn't been invented yet"), this hilariously illustrated farce doesn't even need the gross-sounding-pie motif.
