The Pickle-Chiffon Pie Olympics

release date: Jan 01, 2026
The Pickle-Chiffon Pie Olympics
After nearly 50 years Jolly Roger Bradfield wrote his sequel to Pickle-Chiffon Pie: Here''s the tale of a fourteenth-century Olympics, with sports like dragon wrestling and the 100-yard moat swim, in which the victor wins the hand of a fair princess...along with a surprise ending! I, King Rupert Pickle XIV, hereby declare that all the characters and events chronicled in this tale are true and authentic. All the people portrayed by the author lived at the time of the Pickle-Chiffon Pie Olympics held in June of 1348. The Olympic events reported in the story (dragon wrestling, the giant climb, the moat swim, etc.) actually took place and the winners accurately reported herein. None of the names were changed, nor were locations altered. I have affixed my royal seal and do hereby attest to the accuracy of this statement. (Well, sort of.) Rupert XIV

Giants Come in Different Sizes

release date: Feb 07, 2022
Giants Come in Different Sizes
As far as I''ve been able to determine, giants come in roughly three sizes: ''Very'' big, ''Way, WAY'' big, and ''Good grief, would you look at THAT!'' big. It is possible there there may be even larger ones, but I''ve never personally seen any. A few folks, mostly adults, contend that there are no such things as giants. I will not waste your time nor mine disputing such radical theories. They probably don''t believe in the Easter Bunny or Tooth Fairy either. Blasphemy. In addition (and you may not believe this) there are folks who dispute the fact that hamburgers grow on bushes. Good grief...doesn''t anyone major in agriculture anymore? I know for a fact that a certain fast-food chain started this rumor. Want scientific proof? Well, there are pictures of several hamburger bushes in this very book. Jolly Roger
