The first children's book by New York Times bestselling author Alan C. Fox!

Benji has made up his mind: he's going to grow the biggest banana squash ever from the tiny seeds he saved last summer.
In spring, when the soil is soft, he plants the seeds, waters them, waits, waters them and waits. Will his dream come true?
