The Tale of the Turnip

4.1/5 ( ratings)

When a humble old farmer plants turnips in his field, one of them grows and grows ... and grows ... and Grows. The king rewards the farmer handsomely for his efforts -- much to the dismay of the arrogant squire who lives across the way. But when the squire attempts to claim a similar reward, will he get more than he bargains for? Brain Alderson's charming text and Fritz Wegner's humorous illustrations have yielded a "champion" tale that will delight anyone who's ever cheered for the underdog.
