Invisible Pumpkins 2: Thirsty Seedlings

By Nicholas Thompson

Deluxe full-colour illustrated storybook Ages 3-7

"Training is just doing stuff" - Grandpa Noo

The adventure continues! Bonnie is back - brimming with excitement, ideas, and a few slightly messy ninja experiments.

In Invisible Pumpkins: Thirsty Seedlings, Bonnie takes her first brave steps into secret training. It's not exactly sword fighting or scaling rooftops - it's more like tying shoelaces with your eyes closed, hopping with one shoe on, and making your bed while tethered to a wriggly Labrador puppy. But every ninja starts somewhere.

With endless energy, a sprinkle of chaos, and the ever-watchful love of Grandpa Noo, Bonnie learns that becoming something great isn't about being perfect - it's about being willing to try, and to try again.

This heartwarming sequel is filled with laughter, gentle wisdom, and misadventures that children will find hilarious and parents and grandparents will find refreshingly real. Once again, the book is brought to life with lush, full-colour illustrations on every page - rich in detail, movement, and whimsy - capturing the spirit of childhood and the magic of imagination.

Ideal for ages 3-7, this story celebrates quiet perseverance, secret kindness, and the joy of doing good in the world - even when no one is watching. Whether it's a sneaky teacup refill or a tangle of blankets and puppy feet, Bonnie reminds us that love, laughter, and learning go hand in hand.

Thirsty Seedlings is a warm hug of a story - a perfect read-aloud for grandparents who want to pass on joy, encouragement, and the timeless message that growing takes time, heart, and a little bit of giggle-filled trial and error.
