June 29, 1999 by David Wiesner

Caldecott winner David Wiesner delivers another fanticiful and humorous book, this time in the spirit of Cloudy with a Chance of Meatballs and Pickles to Pittsburgh. On, May 11, 1999, Holly Evans’ science project is the effect of exterristal conditions on plant growth, and so, she sends vegetable seeds in the air by weather balloon. June 29, 1999, is a day that Holly will never forget, and neither will all of America. Because giant vegetables float down from the sky. Turnips show up in the Rocky Mountains. Cucumbers fly over Michigan. And arugula is in Ashtabula as are many other vegetables. But Holly never planted arugula. Where did these giant vegetables come from? This book is perfect for readers of all ages.
