Who - or what - would want to steal vegetables? Fifth graders Jasmine and Jesse don't know who wants their veggies, but they certainly know why! For the salad contest, of course! It's "the who" or "what" the friends must figure out, and they must be careful about it, or they could get hurt. The friends believe their Tower Garden® salad is going to win, until something or someone begins destroying and stealing from it. Join Jasmine and Jesse during their six weeks of cooking classes as the contest date approaches. Discover the fun the friends have growing food on a tower and the joy of eating "the fruits of their labor." Can you put the clues together about the mystery thief before the two heroes do? This is the second book in the series. The first was The Enchanted Tower Garden. The books encourage children to eat healthy and make wise decisions about food. With water resources shrinking, a Tower Garden® is a great way to act water-wise where space is limited.
