Bookroo's summary

Arthur faces a surreal pickle-themed nightmare after lying about his homework. Chased by pickle police and judged by Picklepuss, he must navigate this strange world. Will he learn his lesson?

From the publisher

Arthur must report to the principal’s office first thing tomorrow morning for telling Mr. Ratburn his dog ate his homework. That night, Arthur dreams about the weird town of Pickletown and its peculiar pickle citizens. He is chased by the pickle police, jailed by Judge Picklepuss, and must eat everything from pickle flakes and pickle shakes to pickle cakes. Arthur learns to never tell a fib again in this cautionary Step into Reading® Sticker Book. Includes a full page of stickers to match with words to reinforce word recognition (including a variety of pickle stickers) and a full page of birthday stickers to help beginning readers create their own Arthur stories.
