Revolting Vegetables order quantity

NZ$ 15.00 each
Paperback
Author: Justin Brown & Scott Pearson

As every parent knows, getting children to eat and enjoy vegetables can sometimes be a task. Why do vegies have such a bad rap when we adults know how tasty and fun to eat they can be? Jamie Oliver's School Dinners (TV One) highlighted just how many kids don't actually even know what broccoli is! Justin Brown's children's story - The Revolting Vegetables - teaches kids about vegetables through a humorous story, which sees the greens ending up being the coolest vegies in the fridge. The Revolting Vegetables has been test-read to over 800 children around New Zealand, as part of Alan Duff's Books in Homes project. At each school (whether urban or rural), the children loved the story, which tells how the characters learn it is in fact cool to be a vegetable. The children at the readings had no trouble grasping the message inherent in this simple story and they loved the cartoon-style illustrations.
