Courgette Wants To Be Big – The Foodies Veggie Patch Courgette Story for August

£2.99

In our courgette story from the August vegetable patch, Courgette wants to grow fast like the big marrows in the garden and tries out lots of techniques to make plants grow.

The Foodies bring you vegetable patch stories for every month of the year, and all the characters, scenery and weather are in season that month.

August’s story features courgettes, which are not only in the shops but also abundant everywhere in veggie patches and allotments in the UK. Children can enjoy Courgette’s fun adventure and then learn all about how courgettes grow, go and find some in the shops (or get some from a neighbour!) and cook a lovely courgette recipe from the back of the book.

This story is all how fruits and vegetables grow and that wanting to grow up fast is normal, but we are special at exactly the size we are right now, and the free downloads build on that theme.

August’s Book of the Month. Courgette can’t stop measuring himself! The Foodies Books bring you stories from the veggie patch for each month of the year, and all the characters, scenery and weather are in season that month.

It was a baking hot August day in the garden. Some plants were enjoying the sunshine and others were fanning themselves in the shade.

In this story, Courgette doesn’t like being small and wants to be big and grown up. He asks for advice on how plants can grow more quickly and measures himself constantly to see if he is being successful.

The story lends itself to discussions of growing up as well as measurements.  Our free downloadable activities explore the theme of measuring in more depth, with games for children to measure themselves, measure other things using made-up units, and compare sizes of things to learn about bigger and smaller than.
