    About this ebook

    A children's fable. The local farming community is focused on this year's village fete vegetable competition and Mr Plum, the farmer, thinks he is in with a good chance to win. But his prize parsnip has other ideas. Is the grass really greener on the other side of the fence, or will the parsnip learn that it's important to be grateful for who you are.
