review 1: Martha swears that green beans are horrible, vile things, but her parents don't believe her. Not until the night the green beans attack everyone who's ever made someone eat them, carrying off Martha's parents in the process. Now it's up to Martha to save her mom and dad, but it might require a bit of a sacrifice from the bean-averse girl.This hilarious story is a lot of fun to read aloud, and many children will sympathize with Martha's dislike of green beans -- although some parents may not appreciate the anti-veggie stance. The accompanying illustrations enhance the story well and add to the humor -- especially on the very last page.
review 2: When Martha's parents are kidnapped by a mean gang of green beans, she springs to their rescue. Not right away of cour... morese. First she watches a bunch of TV and eats all the cookies. But eventually she confronts the bean leader. "'Let my parents go or I will eat you!'" She says. "The leader of the beans stepped forward and spat on the ground. 'You will not eat us,' he said with an evil sneer. 'You have never eaten a green bean in your life.'" less
