I'd have loved the pony design on a hat or mittens when I was a kid.

But when I opened the book, the first thing I saw was a pear so perfect I had to double-check it was really crocheted. It's funny how quickly I went from thinking there's no way I'd want this book to having to hold myself back from crocheting an entire grocery store.
