Peter's Pockets

This book would be a good story for a new reader. The text is simple and the story doesn't require any additional thinking outside what is stated in the text. The story is about a boy who gets a new pair of pants but the pants don't have any pockets. So on his journey with his uncle, he has to put all his new treasures that he has found in his uncle's pockets. When they get home, the mother sews on pockets from random things around the house. Now the boy has enough pockets to put all his treasures in.
The pictures are also simple. They are all in a box and are done in colored pencil. Definitely a bit dull. This is probably not a book I would read to a child or read again for that matter.
