For every parent who has ever tried to force his/her child to eat their vegetables comes David LaRochelle's and Mark Fearing's How Martha Saved her Parents from Green Beans. Young Martha hates green beans and is convinced they are bad. Little does she know how bad. When a group of bandit beans come into town looking for revenge, they hunt after little old ladies, teachers, Martha's parents...anyone who has ever said, "Eat your green beans!" When Martha's parents are kidnapped, Martha will be forced to take action (after taking some time to enjoy staying up late and eating ice cream for dinner!). Will she be able to save her parents from the green beans? Ivy has asked me to read this to her at least 15 times in the last few days. If only it would make her eat her green beans...
Welcome to Ivy's Vine! Tired of making fruitless google searches looking for the "best books" for your child? Here is a website guided by a five-year-old. Ivy, with her mommy's help, has compiled a list of her favorite books. Please let me know if you have any suggestions. Warning: They will only be placed on the website if they have been approved by the bookworm herself: Ivy.
