Jiva is looking forward to feasts of peas plucked straight from his growing garden. Just as each crop is ready to pick, though, the peas disappear overnight. After trying a scarecrow and a fence, Jiva decides to set a trap for the thief.
So cute! I love Ebbeler’s eye-catching illustrations and Sheth’s clever story! Lots to unpack with young listeners if you use this as a read aloud, too.
