Dill Gherkin #1

Dill Gherkin and the Legend of the Christmas Pickle is a fanciful guide to a family tradition whose origins are shrouded in mystery, as told by Dill Gherkin -- The Bringer of the Christmas Pickle! Santa brings the presents... the reindeer bring Santa... but only Dill Gherkin brings... THE CHRISTMAS PICKLE! Along with laughs, chuckles and gafaws a-plenty.

It's a tradition of Germanic origin... or maybe not! It's a harrowing story of two Spanish boys, on their way home from boarding school, who run afoul of a sinister innkeeper... possibly! It's a tale of strength, determination and a Christmas miracle set amidst the American Civil War... potentially! It's a legend that has spawned its own festival and parade in a southwestern Michigan town... definitely!
