Publisher's Synopsis
An anarchic, messy, monstrously magical underdog story of HUGE proportions featuring a little boy, his horrid siblings, and some super-squishy tomatoes
In the dark town of Grislygust a competition is under way—the Great Grislygust Grow-off. Marvin plans to grow the tastiest tomatoes in town, but he is a small boy, and his beastly brother Boris and his poisonous sister Prunella tease him that his tomatoes will be tiny too! With a little bit of magic and a special song, his plant begins to grow and grown until . . . oh no, monster tomato! What can Marvin do to stop his wayward plant? Is there any hope of him winning now? Complete with real songs to sing aloud, this slapstick romp of a story comes to life with comic, gothic, hyper-real illustrations combined with gigantic fold-outs for interactive appeal.
