"My son loved it! I loved it, too! I could see his little wheels spinning when he was listening. He's been asking me if he won't be strong if he doesn't eat his vegetables."

"This is a great shape shifty tale in a genre of anthropomorphic realistic classics like “The Incredible Shrinking Woman” and “Freaky Friday.” A moral educational riff in the spirt of “Free To Be You And Me” and “Davy and Goliath” designed to have your child eat their veggies with gusto!"
