First recorded in Russia in the 19th Century by Aleksei Tolstoy, The Gigantic Turnip has all the ingredients of a truly hilarious folk tale for children and adults alike. Watch out for the special surprise at the end! "...an old, old tale, but this new version has to be one of the best ever... rhythmical, funny and perfectly paced" — Guardian
"In this silly retelling of the classic Russian tale, The Gigantic Turnip encourages friendship and working together to achieve success" – New York Botanical Garden

Find out what happens when the old woman, the old man, and all twenty-one animals on the farm try to harvest a rather large root vegetable. This well-loved Russian tale uses humor, counting and repetition to appeal to beginner readers.
