Alien Tomato

This hilarious, laugh-out-loud tale has something for everyone! When a newcomer arrives unexpectedly in the garden, the veggies welcome the newcomer and try to make it feel at home. A cheeky gopher, who is “all-knowing” about the garden’s goings-on scoffs at the veggies, while freely and humorously offering his opinion. Kids will easily relate to this witty tale that parallels interactions that occur on many playgrounds. Themes of inclusion, kindness, and embracing diversity are present throughout. Engell’s bright and lively illustrations gives life to all of the garden characters and compliment Schroeder’s hilariously fun text. Kids will ask to have ALIEN TOMATO read again and again!

Perfect gift for any young reader, family, or classroom! Filled with clever text (including speech bubbles!) and fun illustrations, kids are going to fall in love with gopher and the mysterious red object that landed in the garden. And did I mention the cast of garden veggies?!? This book is so much fun! Be sure to check it out!

I bought this book for our daughter who teaches in an elementary school. Colorful illustrations are a perfect complement to this clever story about something different that appears in a vegetable garden. Wonderful ending!

Amazing book for kids. A fun read

An entertaining and fun read with valuable lessons for all. Beautiful illustrations and lively characters keep young ones engaged and wanting to read more.

Preordered this and was not disappointed! Colorful art and a great story about welcoming those who are different. Kids love it and it quickly found a place in the bedtime rotation.

We love Alien Tomato! Such a cute and funny story about the new arrival in the garden! A lovely addition to my home library!
