The Vegetable-Loving Crocodile
There was a farmer who worked in the fields every day.
One day, he found a little crocodile in the river…
Since then, the little crocodile worked with him every day.
As the days went by,
the little crocodile grew bigger and bigger.
The hard soil in the fields,
was dug up soft and loose.
It was ready for planting,
so the farmer planted all kinds of vegetable seeds in the fields.
The seeds grew slowly, getting bigger and bigger…
Every day, the farmer picked various delicious vegetables to feed the little crocodile.
Sometimes it was Chinese broccoli.
Sometimes it was Chinese cabbage.
Crunch! Crunch! Crunch!
And tasty cabbage too.
One day, a doctor came to the village,
to check everyone’s health.
Some people’s stomachs made strange noises,
some children couldn’t poop!
But the little crocodile’s stomach wasn’t swollen,
nor did it make any strange noises, it was very healthy!
It turned out that the little crocodile loved to eat vegetables,
its stomach was full of little green elves,
chasing away all the bad bacteria!
Eating vegetables has such great benefits, everyone started eating vegetables.
Next door, Mrs. Zhang,
made hollow-stemmed vegetables, angled luffa, and vegetable tofu soup.
All the mothers made fragrant vegetables for their families to eat.
The children who ate vegetables,
dreamed of themselves turning into strong
green little superheroes…
