Georgy Piney Woods, the best peddler who ever lived, makes several trades so his daughter can buy a wedding dress.
This story definitely hits your silly bone. Georgy is determined to get his silver dollar but also seems so naive. He trades his only asset for something less valuable and it goes downhill from there. He is so optimistic and you never get a feel that there is any reason to be anything else. It is very fun to read and the illustrations are fabulous.
