APPEALS TO: MANY

When two friends stumble upon a giant parsnip, their curiosity and their imaginations take off! Can they turn the parsnip into a car? What about a rocket? Finally it is decided to make a giant pot of parsnip soup.  The work, and then the counting, begins.  The final page offers a fun surprise that readers won't expect for the first time through this heartwarming book of friendship, hard work, and quality  time spent together. 

We love the illustrations in this fun counting book.  The mix of a friendship theme, an imaginative task, and a fun counting book makes this a picture book that stands apart from most.  Imaginative and educational, this book will become a favorite of many.
