Publisher Description: What happens when a famous Russian folktale gets adapted for little readers from another culture? Big yellow turnip turns into the Scottish neeps and becomes part of the famous Scottish haggis meal which is very much enjoyed by two sisters and their cat Tommy who is narrating this story. The three help their Nana plant the turnip which grows so big that it takes the whole family to pull it out. The Russian folktale The Turnip, one of the most popular folktales Russian children grow up with, is retold with Scottish flair and adapted for English-reading children. |
