Description

This funny and light-hearted tale is a delightful, laugh-out-loud story of friendship, humility and vegetables, which kids of all ages will love! Its nearly time for the Annual Vegetable Awards and all the vegetables gather to discuss who deserves to be nominated. Unassuming Broccoli feels she lives a very normal life but decides to go along as best friend Carrot - with the amazing hair - will be there. Broccoli is quiet while the other vegetables begin to bicker about who is the best.

"Easy peasy" chorused the Pea Pod Possy. "We went skiing through the Wobbly Wild Woods, home of the white whistling wolves! And only one of us got eaten!". "Don't be silly", said Tomato, "I went trekking through the..." "TOMATO! You're not even a vegetable!" Potato protested. "Besides, I climbed to the top of Vege-Table Mountain!" Slowly it emerges that Broccoli is actually incredibly brave and kind, and a very special vegetable.

Featuring a grumpy aubergine, an arrogant potato, and many more veggie characters this amusing tale highlights how special we all are in our own way.

Author Bio

Mike Henson grew up in Zimbabwe, but after bobbing around the world, has ended up on a little island off the south coast of England. Mike and his wife have three children, who they suspect might be monkeys, and secret plans to steal a baby hippo (it hasnt happened yet - and probably wont - ever!). Mike loves to create - stories, pictures, songs and mess in the kitchen. As an author, illustrator and designer, his main workspace is a little caravan in the garden, crammed full of books, sketch pads, pencils and other nonsense.
