Free the Onion

  I read about a very unique children's book entitled "The Onion's Great Escape" and purchased it recently for my grandson.


   We really enjoyed reading it aloud together. There are two plot lines, one is the rescue of the onion from the "fry" and the second is the quest to answer life's really hard questions. For example; if you have more and more thoughts, will your head get bigger? We wrote the answers to the questions in his book and after each page, freed a little more of the doomed onion until,……


                                                   He escaped to be ever an entity in himself.


                   Which left the book with a gaping hole but still readable and enjoyable to ponder.


     Great for a Christmas gift, boys or girls 6-12. The questions are deep, deep , and deeper.
