The Turnip: a Russian Folktale

This cumaltive tale of an Enormous Turnip is a lot of fun! There are a lot of variations too.  I used The Flannel Board Storytelling Book by Judy Sierra for my patterns and story.  I made the ground as a pocket for the turnip to 'grow' and pop out at the end. I used a couple of shades of purple marker to shade the top of the turnip. Here's a tip, let it sit and dry for a couple of hours!  I did add a lesson at the end of the story. "Big or small, old or young when we all work together we get the job done!"  Such a lot of Fun with Friends at Storytime!
