The Trouble with Cauliflower
Sadie has made her best friend Mortimer a delicious stew . . . with cauliflower! Doesn’t Sadie know that cauliflower causes extreme bad luck?

Jane Sutton has created two truly lovable new characters and Jim Harris brings them to life with his charming illustrations that are full of funny details..
