What is Agent Spike and the Vegetables of Doom about?

When vegetables begin taking over a scientific research institute, ordinary schoolboy Spike is called into action as a secret agent. The institute’s staff—and even the prime minister—are being labelled weeds, while rival vegetable factions battle for control. Spike must stop the chaos before the prime minister’s visit, but his most dangerous mission awaits: facing the enormous Big Pumpkin, leader of the vegetables. Can this unlikely hero save the day, or will the institute become a permanent garden?
