Pete and Petey - "Knight in Shining Armor!""Petey Washburn," Daddy said, "Gramma needs more milk. How about you and I walk to the corner store and get some for her?" It is Christmas and the Washburn family is gathered at Gramma's house. When Petey and his dad step outside into the cold air they can see their breath and pretend they are railroad trains puffing down the street. But the fun comes to a sudden stop when a lady slips and falls right in front of them. Without hesitation, Petey gathers her groceries while Dad helps her to her feet and walks her safely home. Now the store is closed and they have no milk for Gramma. "Petey," Daddy asks with a grin, "what do you think the women folk will say when we come home late and without any milk?"Pete and Petey is a children's picture book series from J2B Publishing for kids ages 4-8.
