Cheers for friends at teatime

From country or from town,

We welcome all and everyone-

Pinkies up or down!

Pinkies Up combines lyrical storytelling and playful illustrations to celebrate vibrant diversity--and teamwork--as animal costume-clad children gather for a tea party.

"A delicious tea party in costume turns into pandemonium until one wise owl demonstrates how good manners matter and restores unity. Raven Howell's verses tell a delightful story, enhanced by Lisa Rush's whimsical illustrations."
