No More Vegetables
by Nicole Rubel
Farrar Straus & Giroux
Ruthie does not like vegetables. She does not like seeing them on her plate; she does not like hearing about them from her teacher. Ruthie finally gets her way -- no more vegetables! -- as long as she agrees to help plant and tend this year's vegetable garden. Ruthie figures that growing vegetables will be better than eating them. Little does she suspect that growing vegetables will soon make vegetables grow on her.
