| The dandelions are disappearing, so Nibbles must learn to grow his own |
|
From the Publisher:
The guinea pigs of Dandeville love munching dandelion leaves so much that slowly but surely all the dandelions in town disappear; when Nibbles the guinea pig finds the last dandelion right outside his window, he must learn to grow his own in order to save the day. |
Annotation:
Dandeville is filled, in fact overflowing, with dandelion leaf-loving guinea pigs. Nibbles is one of them, and the betrousered fellow is upset to discover that leaves are getting scarce. So instead of eating the last dandelion he finds, Nibbles plants the seeds so that there will be more leaves for everyone. With illustrations.

Praise
"Middleton's free-spirited mixed-media illustrations--Nibbles has dimensional whiskers and wears green, floral-print shorts; a 'chewy' cabbage appears in photo-collage--keep this allegory about consumption lighthearted."

"This is a simple story with a message that is delivered gently and with good humor."
