Moose discovers a very big cabbage in his garden that could win first prize at the Alaska State Fair. But there's a problem -- it's so huge he can't lift it! Various animal friends stop to help, and through teamwork and positive attitude, they succeed. An old Russian folktale about a large turnip inspired The Giant Cabbage, but this contemporary version uses verbal and visual twists that showcase its Alaska setting. Comical repetitions, fun words, and vivid animal characters bring the story to life, and there's even a recipe for a scrumptious cabbage stew to be cooked in a giant pot!
By day I am a wild mannered Kindergarten teacher. Kindergarten is the greatest!! My husband and I are blessed to live, work and travel in Alaska. Our home is filled with love, laughter, books, cd's, classic movies, two persnickety black cats, an Old English Sheepdog who is convinced he is human-named Barnaby and vast herds of dust rhinos that evolved from mere bunnies.
