Synopsis

“Pixies are mischievous,”…said [Aunt Agnes], “but very good companions.”

Peter has his own pixie, and what trouble it causes him! When the pixie bats a ball right into a bowl of salad or knocks over building blocks Peter gets the blame, for he is the only one who knows the pixie is there. Besides, he is about to become a big brother and his preoccupied parents are expecting him to be especially grown up. But when the pixie disappears, Peter is surprised to find that he is lonely. How can he lure the pixie back?

The late Donn Kushner’s magical picture book evokes the special bond that exists between all brothers and sisters.
