Suggested Grade Level: K-3
Summary: In the city, the children in Miss Honeywood's classroom are up to something.. BIG! These children have grown the biggest turnip in the world. One problem: how do they get the turnip out of the ground? The students brainstorm ways to get the turnip out- but nothing works! What will do it? A Helicopter? A crane? Whatever the students do try- the turnip won't budge! In the end, the students learn that when they work together they can do anything.
Connections: This book is said to be based on a traditional Russian story. This could be another example of a book to include in a lesson about traditional stories, cultures, appreciating cultural differences etc. This book could also be used to discuss the benefits of working together.
