Pickle-Chiffon Pie

<< Prev page

Jolly Roger Bradfield

Fans consider this villain-free tale from 1967 to be a timeless classic, and there are a lot of fans. Before it was recently republished, it was selling on the Internet for $100 a copy and more. The author says this book generated more mail than any of his other books. The reason might be that it so effectively advocates the virtues of selflessness, love, and caring for others -- all rare commodities these days. With the humor of a whacky comedy and the wisdom of an ancient proverb, this story provides an invaluable template for making difficult choices in life.

First we meet a fat little king who loves Pickle-Chiffon Pie. His is a happy kingdom, but he has a problem. His daughter, the Princess, has more suitors than she can manage. This is not good because these suitors regularly join the royal family for dinner, and the more people there are for dinner, the less pie there is for the King! He decides to solve the problem by calling for the three nicest princes in the land and telling them to go out into the forest, and ''The one who brings back the most unusual, the most marvelous, the MOST WONDERFUL THING'' may marry the Princess.

Each of the suitors uses his strongest trait to carry out the mission. The strong one uses his bravery, the intelligent one uses his cleverness, and the kind one uses his heart. I won't tell you who is choosen, but I will tell you that they live happily ever after, and it was all accomplished without victims, evil, or even sadness -- on anyone's part. You'll be doing your child, yourself, and our world a favor by reading this outrageously funny, brilliantly wise story of kindness, consideration for others, and the art of making good choices.
