An easy-to-read delight about a dog who is determined to rollerskate, just like his hero…only he doesn’t know that practice comes first!

The irrepressible Pickle is back, and now he wants to emulate his favorite superhero who makes rescues on Roller Skates.

When Pickle finally learns to skate himself, he can’t wait to share what he learns…until he gets the biggest surprise of all.
