A children's favourite, illustrated with fun and character.
When Farmer Joe plants the seeds in his turnip field, he gets more than he bargained for - much more! One of the seeds just grows and grows and grows, leaving Farmer Joe with the problem of how to dig it up. What follows is a lot of heaving and pulling, but the enormous turnip just won't budge. Until, that is, help comes in a very unexpected form. This traditional story about co-operation and helping others originated in Eastern Europe. It's re-told by Alan Smith and is beautifully illustrated with hand-drawn pictures by Michelle Lawrence.
