«Silly Stories About Vegetables Books 1 and 2» by Paul Cook

‘Silly Stories About Vegetables Books 1 and 2’ consists of six silly short stories about six different vegetables. The first story is about a stick of rhubarb that meets a hardboiled egg called Egg while trying to cross a cattle grid. In the second story there is a radish that hitches a ride down the street on a skateboard. The third short story focuses on three meadow mushrooms in a clearing and the silly stories that they imagine which includes a hippo that goes to school. The fourth short story is about a sprig of parsley that runs away from a factory, ends up on a fishing boat and narrowly escapes being eaten in a sandwich. The fifth short story is about a carrot that finds itself being used as a nose for a snowman before falling into a drain. The final story is about a turnip that causes havoc in the village by rolling down the street, through the park, into the church and bakers. Available as audio books, these stories can be read by parents to young children or, alternatively, read by children aged seven years old and upwards. The stories are written and narrated by British author Paul Cook; author of the ‘Pete the Bee Stories’.
