Reach for this book when your child feels overlooked, misunderstood, or unfairly judged. It is the perfect antidote to the frustration of trying your best and being dismissed by an authority figure. The story follows a sentient, highly intelligent zucchini who enters a science fair only to be insulted by the judge. What follows is a hilarious, slightly chaotic tale of revenge and standing up for one's worth. While the plot is delightfully absurd, it taps into deep themes of justice and the emotional fallout of being 'small' in a world of big, sometimes insensitive adults. It provides a safe space for children to laugh at their frustrations through the lens of a cranky vegetable. Parents will appreciate the clever mixed-media art and the way it validates a child's sense of fairness without being preachy. It is best suited for ages 4 to 8, especially those who appreciate dry humor and underdog victories.
