A veggie-tastic ode to beets, brussels and bhindi!
We are introduced to 5 year old Jai who encounters monsters in his kitchen at midnight. Just as he trembles in fright, we have an unlikely bunch of superheroes to Jai’s rescue! A bunch of vegetables decide to fight the monsters by channeling their inner superpowers.
What follows is a delightful tale of the various veggies chanting a mantra and coming up with a unique song & dance to combat the ferocious monsters. The same vegetables that Jai rejected, now come to his rescue – prompting Jai to re-discover his love for them.
Siddhanth was intrigued to see vegetables morphing into superheroes and loved the rhythmic “vitachants”!
This action-packed story has a gentle rhyming scheme and is sure to have your child dancing and singing alongside Jai. The catchy and bright illustrations perfectly complement Rachna Chabbria’s entertaining and nutrition-packed storyline.
The only downside in this otherwise yummylicious book is its rather lengthy storyline.
As a mother of a picky eater, I loved the concept of the book. The author has masterfully made eating vegetables about defeating monsters which harbour illnesses. The story had a positive impact on young Sid who gobbled down some vegetables that day! So a huge thank you, Rachana!
Is your child a picky eater who refuses vegetables?
