Amazon.com Product Description (ISBN 0590459422, Paperback)

Angeline and John are off on a pea-picking race. Grandfather has promised them a penny for every pound of peas they pick on a hot summer day during the Depression. But what can the children buy for just a few pennies? Lot's of things. " . . . this rollicking, rhyming text . . . provides an upbeat, historical portrait of an African-American farm family."--Booklist.
