In Pickles to Pittsburgh, the Barretts' sequel to the delightfully funny, bestselling Cloudy with a Chance of Meatballs, we check back in with Kate and Henry as they eagerly await Grandpa's return from an unusual vacation. Kate dreams about a postcard Grandpa has sent, and the story begins. Kate and Henry pilot a plane, landing on a runway of crisp bacon strips next to a field of giant broccoli stalks and oversized hamburgers. Passing through an orange-juice rain, they approach the town of Chewandswallow, which "used to be a very ordinary town, except that instead of weather, food rained down from the sky for breakfast, lunch, and dinner." Times have changed in Chewandswallow, and readers will love finding out how storms of gigantic food threatened normal life until eventually the Falling Food Company was created, sending food to hungry people around the world. Ron Barrett's comical, detailed ink-and-watercolor illustrations and the lively story make this a satisfying sequel to a delicious classic. Pickles to Pittsburgh is an excellent bedtime book--just keep a snack handy! (Ages 4 to 8)

I purchased this for my son after he fell in love with Cloudy with a chance of meatballs! I saw this and knew we had to add it to our collection! He loves it just as much as the first, although I am partial to the first one! Both are great reads full of imagination!

My grandosn loves this sequel. His parents read it to him as soon as he received it. He loves Cloudy with a Chance of meatballs and looks forward to seeing the movie. Great author.

Eh... this is a hard one for me. I loved the original book, but this... this does nothing for me. While "Cloudy With a Chance of Meatballs" held an aura of pure magic, this is little more than a politically correct dream and ruins the abandonment of Chewandswallow. The illustrations are excellent as always, but all in all, this is pale in comparison to "Cloudy".

This is my 4 year old son's favorite book. We checked it out from the library, then eventually bought it along with every other book by this author. Must buy cloudy with a chance of meatballs as well!
