- Rating: 4 out of 5 stars4/512.) [Grandma Lena's Big Ol' Turnip], [[Denia Lewis Hester]] ***1/2This picture book recasts a traditional Russian tale into a suburban environment. Grandma Lena plants a turnip that grows to unbelievable proportions and needs the help of all the family to pull it up. Then she makes all manner of good southern food out of it and invites the whole neighborhood to a picnic. Pleasant with nice illustrations.
