Read together
Once upon a time, there lived 10 vegetable friends named Lettuce, Peas, Onion, Eggplant, Cauliflower, Tomato, Cucumber, Potato, Cabbage, and Carrot. They all lived in a garden and loved to play together. One day, they decided to have a picnic.
But when they went to pack the food, they realized they only had corn to eat! So, they decided to change themselves into different food items to make a delicious meal.
Lettuce became a salad, Peas turned into pea soup, Onion became onion rings, Eggplant became eggplant parmesan, Cauliflower became roasted cauliflower, Tomato became tomato sauce, Cucumber became pickles, Potato became fries, Cabbage became coleslaw, and Carrot became carrot cake.
They all enjoyed their new forms and had a fantastic picnic feast. From that day on, they made sure to always bring a variety of food to their picnics!
The end.
