Food Fight by Alex Latimer
The Fruits and the Vegetables have been fighting FOREVER! But best friends Grape and Mushroom decide it's time for things to change. They meet in secret and hatch a plan to end the fighting once and for all. And so they set off on an epic journey to the very top of the fridge to ask the legendary Wise Old Cheese for help-that is, if he even exists. Join these tiny peace envoys on their courageous mission as they eventually find the solution in an unexpected place . . . A laugh-out-loud picture book about conflict resolution: 'Hilarious, Grape and Mushroom truly achieve peas on Earth.' - David Litchfield
