Pickles to Pittsburgh -- Judi Barrett, Paperback

In Pickles to Pittsburgh, the sequel to Cloudy With a Chance of Meatballs, Kate drifts off to sleep and, with her brother Henry as her copilot, visits the land of Chewandswallow--a land characterized by massive amounts of food, immense carrots, leafy jungles of lettuce, and tuna fish sandwiches so gigantic they have to be moved by helicopter. And what the people of Chewandswallow are doing with all that food is most intriguing of all!

Fans of Cloudy With a Chance of Meatballs will applaud this return trip with its underlying message of generosity and a world community, available in a Classic Board Book edition that is perfect for the youngest of readers.
