This is such a wonderful little book. I'm utterly heartbroken that it's out of print. The one copy we had when I was little was secreted away by my sister, who claims it was a birthday present from our grandparents. I bet she strokes it quietly and mumbles "my precious" when she thinks no one can hear.

Little mushy balls of poison. :P

[Sarah · Rating 5 out of 5]

"Mix it, mash it, stir stir stir. No more balls of mushy poison." As grown-ups, my family and I still quote our favorite Patrick lines such as this one, which finds our young hero Patrick the bear facing a dreaded substance on his plate at dinnertime: peas. This is a top-notch little children's storybook. I also highly recommend Patrick Buys a Coat, Patrick Takes a Bath, and Patrick Goes to Bed.

I loved this book as a kid. I just found my old copy in with some toys, but I remember reading it so many times.
