How Martha Saved Her Parents from Green Beans

32 pp. | Dial | April, 2013 | Trade ISBN 978-0-8037-3766-2 $16.99
(3) K-3 Illustrated by Mark Fearing. A surly gang of green beans kidnaps Martha's parents. She soon realizes, with a pinched nose, that to save them she must consume every last one of her least favorite vegetable. Witty text matched by humorously rendered mustachioed, marauding green beans will speak to any veggie-dreading child who has heard (and any parent who's said) "eat your green beans!"
Reviewer: Rebecca Reed Whidden
