George Piney Woods, the best peddler who ever lived, wants to make a trade for a silver dollar so his daughter can buy a wedding dress. After several transactions, he finally succeeds with one fine trade.
Reviews
Brisk pacing and cliffhanger page turns make this a natural for either telling or reading, and Hillenbrand’s bright scenes of a smiling peddler in rustic dress striding through field, forest and swamp in search of the next transaction add plenty of color and spirit. —Kirkus Reviews
Hillenbrand’s… energetic mixed media compositions keep pace with Georgy’s enthusiastic salesmanship. His weathered top hat, patchwork britches and polite demeanor make him fun to follow as he travels the evocative landscape, from the bucolic meadow to the ‘deep deep’ woods. —Publishers Weekly
