Enhanced descriptions from Syndetics:
Community cooperation turns a traffic jam into an opportunity for fun in this inventive counting book starring a pair of clever canine siblings.
In this highly original counting tale, the Pickwicks--Pip and Peach, Mom and Daddy--leave the hot hazy city for a picnic by the shore. Along the way, they are passed by 2 scooters, 3 jeeps, and more--until they hit a sudden roadblock of 10 cruisers. Traffic stops and drivers grow grumpy, but Pip and Peach know exactly how to turn an unexpected glitch into a festive occasion for everyone! Engaging rhythm and detail-filled art reward repeated readings of Carol Brendler and Renée Kurilla's countable account of a very special picnic.
After a canine family leaves the hot hazy city for a picnic by the shore, they run into a traffic jam crammed with vehicles ranging from one pickup to ten troopers cruisers, consequently creating an unexpected opportunity--for a picnic.
