Résumé

One fine spring morning, an old man and an old woman sow lots of vegetable seeds. By the end of the summer their garden is full of peas and carrots and potatoes and beans - and one gigantic turnip. However hard the old man pulls he cannot move it, so he has to ask for help - first from his wife, then from the cow, the two pot-bellied pigs, the three black cats, the four speckled hens, the five white geese and the six yellow canaries.
But still the turnip will not move... Niamh Sharkey's wonderfully quirky illustrations give new life to this well-loved traditional tale from Russia, and make this a book that will have everyone laughing out loud, and ordering turnip stew for supper !
