When the farmer can't pull an enormous turnip out of the ground, he enlists his entire family to help him. Only when everybody works together do they manage to pull the turnip out of the ground. A classic folk tale, specially retold for young children and illustrated with fresh, bright humorous pictures. Young children will love having this tale read to them, but the text also simple enough for confident readers to enjoy alone.
