    About this ebook

    It's a hard life in the vegetable patch as Sir Thomas de Tomato finds out on his return from the pea pod wars. All the vegetables are getting ready for war. During the war a great black cloud is seen and King Billy Brussel knows that it is St George de Gardiner and that his army is doomed. Read this fantastically silly and funny tale of vegetable matters.

    David Barron

    I was born in Dundee in Scotland, and was a student at the University of Abertay. I have written many pieces of poetry over the years for Tailcast.com under my own name. I still write poetry but lately I have tried children's stories. The first was as a story to tell the grandchildren. As you can see I have written quite a few books now, but struggle to find the time to write more.I have a couple of new one's in the pipeline and I hope that you will all bear with me, I'm sure the kids will love them. Oh and I haven't forgotten the older generation among you and have a great idea for a new book that I'm sure you'll like also. Much love to all who have taken the time to read my stuff. Any feedback at vegvanman@live.co.uk.
