Editor reviews

Another sweet and funny story from beloved Australian children's author Paul Jennings. When the neighbors have to sell their farm, sensitive young Chris desperately wants to save the cows, even though one of them is pregnant and dad has laid down a firm "no". So Chris sneaks out at night and follows one of the cows, Petal, ending up in a cabbage patch full of green babies! One cabbage baby was enough to handle, but fifty motherless babies all crying at once is just too much. Performer Kate Hosking's delivery is pitch-perfect and very fun, while the imaginative sound effects add sparkle.

Critic reviews

"The combination of narrator Kate Hosking's marvelous delivery and the imaginative sound effects used in a most unusual way add to this listening experience...as Bolinda splendidly delivers Jennings's humor and charm." ( AudioFile)
