It appears the seed were ‘Silly Seeds’!!

I am not going to tell you what developed from the seeds as I am sure you have a youngster in your life who would love for you to read this to them.
The story comes with great illustrations.

I read [book: Bogus Business Unlimited] by author, Yvonne Toner and thought it was so much fun- so here I am again!
I read a lot of thrillers and sometimes it is fun to escape into the world of children’s magic. As a grandma as well as I guidance counselor I enjoying reading a children’s story I can recommend.
