What is Oliver's Vegetables about?

Oliver loves chips and refuses to eat any other vegetables. During a visit to his grandfather's house, he agrees to a challenge: he can have chips if he finds the potatoes in the garden. Each day, Oliver pulls up a different vegetable—carrots, spinach, rhubarb, cabbage, beets, and peas—and must eat them for dinner. To his surprise, he discovers that he enjoys them all, broadening his taste and appreciation for various vegetables.
