About this ebook
Before Thanksgiving dinner, it is customary for everyone to say what they are thankful for during the year. At this time, Little Pickles and Clumpy, the dog, disappear and everyone starts to look for them. It is a mystery in Black River City as to their whereabouts. But, as usual, Pop Pop Potatoes comes to the rescue.

This is the third book in a series titled Stories on the Front Steps. This story is a continuation of characters and their adventures. The premise of Stories on the Front Steps is that when the author was a child, her father told stories to her and her siblings every evening on the front steps. Her father was blind and so instead of books with pictures, the children listened to his stories with the funny characters and used their imagination as to just what they looked like.
