Rooty the Rutabaga: The Meaning of Kung Fu Kindle Edition

by Steven Megson (Author), Andy Yura (Illustrator) Format: Kindle Edition
4.5 out of 5 stars 58 ratings

He wants to try something new and exciting. But does he first have to get stronger and faster?

Rooty is the most curious veggie in the patch. Watching a bunch of broccoli practice strange movements in the garden, the inquisitive rutabaga gathers his courage to approach the group. And when they tell him they’re practicing kung fu and he asks if he can join in, he’s mighty confused when they ask him if he’s ready!

Returning with a homemade martial arts outfit, Rooty is upset when the wise floret-headed stalks say he’s still not prepared to begin. And after his attempts to lift branches for strength and run races with friends to become speedy don’t work, the sad vegetable fears he’ll never have what it takes to do their fascinating moves.

Will the little round root that could ever show that he can?

Rooty the Rutabaga: The Meaning of Kung Fu is the adorable second tale in the Rooty the Rutabaga children’s book series, for ages 3-8 and can be read as a standalone. If you and your child like loveable characters, cute and colorful illustrations, and feel-good activity sections, then you’ll adore Steven Megson’s yard of fun.

    Illustrations are the same adorable veggies as the first Rooty book. Rooty once again gives our children a great message about hard work and persistence. Even my 15 year old loved the cuteness.

    This rutabaga keeps churning out classics. Another sensational book that kids can’t get enough of. At this rate, I expect Rooty to get his own Netflix show, and I’m proud to say my kids have been fans since the beginning. Well done Steve Megson and the whole Rooty team

    4.0 out of 5 stars A cute little book about resilience
    Reviewed in Germany on July 26, 2022
    Format: KindleVerified Purchase
    This is an enjoyable little book about a determined but sensitive rutabaga. The artwork is well done, the text does not try 'too hard', and the story and message are clear. As an extra add-on there are a few games your kids can play at the end of the book. A nice touch. My kids enjoyed the story and understood the point with ease. I'd recommend this book without hesitation.
