From the outside, Pickles and Pork Rind are nothing alike. One is a loud, boisterous city elephant. The other is a reserved armadillo from the country. But when they meet, something magical happens. Despite their differences, Pickles and Pork Rind become best friends. Soon enough, all the differences disappear. Or at least Pickles and Pork Rind don't see them. Pickles and Pork Rind is a wonderful rhyming book that reminds children not to judge a book by its cover. Because what's on the outside isn't most important. It's the inside that counts.
