Carlton’s Perfect Part cover

"One autumn's day, at harvest time, from out a muddy field 

There came a carrot quite unlike the others in the yield..."


Carlton doesn't look like all the other carrots with his spots and stumpy toes. As chef after chef rejects him as an ingredient in their recipe a dejected Carlton wonders if he’ll ever find his perfect part.

Will a chance encounter with an onion finally change his fortune?

A charming story with important messages about resilience and food waste, Carlton's Perfect Part is ideal for any young reader aged 2-6, and can open up conversations about the environment and the small steps we can all take to protect our planet.
