Come along with Pickle to find the car that is just right in this silly graphic early reader.

Pickle just wants some fresh cream from the farm, but his car breaks down! With a trip to Coco’s garage, he hopes to find the perfect car for him.

The race car? Too fast. The safe car? Too big. The fancy car? Too expensive. But Coco has an idea that might just save Pickle’s day. This humorous tale and adorable art will have kids giggling and reading on their own.

What reviewers said

"Amusing and highly entertaining."
The Horn Book, Starred Review
"The well-paced panels of this beguiling early reader demonstrate the storyteller’s skill with a gently funny tale. Another signature quirky creation that’s certain to delight, especially for Richard Scarry fans."
Booklist
"The tale offers an excellent lesson in self-awareness, pragmatism, and manners. A clever take on the trials and tribulations of replacing a busted ride."
