The Enormous Turnip-Bedtime Stories for kids
Story Script:
once upon a time, there lived a poor farmer in a village with his wife .
one day he decided to
plant turnips in his
field.
He noticed that one
turnip was growing
bigger and faster than
all the others.
"That's a mighty fine big.
fat turnip," the farmer
told his wife. "We'll
have a feast!"
Indeed, that turnip grew
and grew, much bigger
and fatter than any
turnip he had ever seen!
The farmer didn't
want the turnip to
spoil, so he called his
wife to help him pull
up that big fat turnip.
But try as they might, they couldn't pull it out of the earth.
The farmer's wife put her arms around the farmer - and they pulled and pulled.
"It's no good..." she yelled. "Call the
children to help..."
The grandchildren came running. This was fun! They all pulled and pulled.
"It's no good..."
The children yelled, "Call the dog to pull with us!"
But even with the dog pulling as hard as he could, that turnip stayed put.
The cat was watching, and she joined in. They all pulled and pulled.
But still that turnip didn't move....
A little mouse was watching all this, too.
The mouse didn't think much of the cat, but he decided to join in and pull...
WOULD you believe it, that little mouse made a big, big difference!
At last the big fat turnip plopped out of the earth.
"Thank you all for helping!" The old man wiped his hot red face with a cloth. "Who would have thought that a little mouse would make such a big
difference!"
One of the grandchildren smiled a huge smile.
"This calls for a party..."
And a party it was!
A great big pot of turnip soup for all the helpers.
Even the little mouse joined in...
He would have preferred a nibble of cheese, but he tried a little of the turnip soup and decided,
"Quite tasty! Is there any bread to go with it?”
So you see, if we ALL join in to help, even the tiniest of us can make a big difference!
