15 D "Reprise d'enfant mange par bete noire" (10)

R???T?T?O? I'm assuming it's REPETITION = reprise, but not sure.

Also if that's the case would 20a"Perhaps enter this to get pernickety" (5) - ??C?Y be PICKY?

28a "Stop and chat" (5) S?E?K Iooks like it must be SPEAK for chat but don't see the parsing for stop.

Any help much appreciated

For 15, enfant = child = petit (small)

bete = mad, a hint to rearrange noire.

reprise = repeat
