What happens when the famous Russian folktale gets adapted for English readers? Big yellow turnip turns into the Scottish neeps and becomes part of the famous Scottish haggis meal which is very much enjoyed by two sisters and their Scottish Fold cat Tommy who is narrating this story. The three help their Nana plant the turnip which grows so big that it takes the whole family to pull it out.

Russian folktale 'The Turnip' was retold with the Scottish flair and adapted for English-reading children by Julie G. Fox (author), Julia Bruce (editor) and Aparna Bera (illustrator). 'The Turnip' is one of the most popular folktales Russian children grow up with. In this series we are collecting and retelling folktales from all parts of the world for English-reading children.

Julie G. Fox is an author and the founder of Clever Fox Press. Julie's first book 'Goodbye, Emma' told the story of a boy. This book (which is still Julie's bestseller!) Was based on a true story as Julie and her brothers were refugees themselves. The proceeds from the sale of 'Goodbye, Emma' as well as all other books Julie has been donated to charities. The first hundred copies of the 'Goodbye, Emma' book were shipped to refugee camps in Greece, Canada and Germany. After 'Goodbye, Emma' came out Julie felt that she had too many stories locked up in her head, and these stories had to somehow reach more children. She decided to connect with artists, illustrators and writers in the countries, troubled by wars and economic problems, to encourage those talented and creative individuals who lacked a platform for their difficult homelands. Clever Fox Press which was founded by Julie in the early 2016 has been written and produced 20 more books with more projects on the way.
