Ten books. One family. Real conversations.
Ten illustrated stories designed to be read together. Each book ends with Let’s Talk questions, not to test your child, but to open a conversation neither of you might have started on your own. Ages 7–11 are the years before the phone arrives, when children are still building the self-esteem, empathy, and trust they will need when it does. The story is the warm-up. The conversation is the point.
“I can see the books being part of the primary school PSHE curriculum, end of year 5 or 6.”

Every book opens a conversation.
The Let’s Talk questions at the end of each story are not a worksheet. They are an invitation. No right answers. No assessment. Just a prompt to start a conversation between you and your child.
“Is it okay for children to keep secrets from grown-ups?”
“Is it ever ok to tell lies?”
“Were the children right to push Cucumber in the water?”
Ten themes. Ten conversations.
Each book is designed to be read by parent and child together. The vegetable characters face everyday situations, online and offline, that make it easy to start conversations you might otherwise struggle to find the words for. The themes build on each other across the series.
