Book Hero thinking about your next read

Once upon a time way up high on a cliff, grew a magical garden that belonged to a witch. The Garden Witch is lonely, no one shops at her stall, no one visits her magical garden, and there is no one to talk to—except for the three evil rats she lives with.

Those rotten rats don't know what they have in store for them when Mickey Turnips grows in the witch's magical garden.

Age range 4 to 7

The Garden Witch is lonely; no one shops at her stall, no one visits her magical garden, and there is no one to talk to—except for the three evil rats she lives with. The rats will eat her if she upsets them, so she lives day in and day out the same, until one evening she cries in her garden.

In the morning, she finds that the garden has grown her a little turnip boy, Mickey. The turnip boy, with his charm and bum wiggling, helps the witch refresh her stall and make friends in the community. The witch discovers her own power, and with the help of Mickey, she turns the table on the rats.
