WINTER HAVEN, Fla., Sept. 5, 2008 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Does your child like vegetables? He should, and he will! With Tiny the Pea and his friends, children will be fascinated with healthy vegetables like peas, carrots, beans and tomatoes. Author B.J. Hodges brings out the fun and excitement from these beneficial plants in Tiny the Pea's New Adventure.
When we last heard about Tiny the Pea and his friends, String the Green Bean, Red the Carrot, and Tommy the Tomato, they had narrowly escaped being eaten by the Grubb worms in the Vegetable Garden. Among the friends, only Tommy has been separated from the group. That's because Red and his parents made their home in the same place where Tiny lived. They have become very good friends since. But Tiny misses Tommy, and so does Red. So they hatch a plan to see their old friend, Tommy.
Tiny and his friends are a couple of years older now, and they are on their way for a new adventure. Join them on an exciting journey through the vegetable patch where they meet a snake, a dragonfly, and some more grubb worms. For more information, log on to www.Xlibris.com.
