This hardback edition combines what were originally the first four stories from the 16 titles in the 1980s classic Tales from Fern Hollow series. These gently humourous stories are written and illustrated by English author/illustrator John Patience, with 64 pages of detailed, colourful and cheerful illustrations depicting the animal characters of the village of Fern Hollow, tucked away somewhere in the countryside of Edwardian England. As the inhabitants of Fern Hollow go about their daily lives, there are small adventures to enjoy and little mishaps to overcome. Everyone lends a helping hand and there’s always a happy ending – and usually a feast for everyone to share in celebration.
Noah is a 6-year-old boy who hates eating fruits and vegetables; he thinks broccoli is yukky green stuff! His mom tries to tell him that eating fruits and vegetables will make him big and strong. Noah wants to be a firefighter when he’s older and if he doesn’t eat his fruits and vegetables up, he’ll never be big and strong enough. The boy met Brock Broccoli one day and his life changed forever. With the help of some very friendly superhero fruits and vegetables Noah starts to understand. The little boy knows that he must listen to their rhyming words of wisdom.
