When Cucumber Lost His Cool

A perfectly-pitched tale of fun and friendship, from master storyteller Michelle Robinson and illustrator extraordinaire Tom Knight.

Kevin the cucumber is so cool – everybody knows it!

Whenever anyone gets hot and bothered, Kevin is always there to cool them down. He even has his own super cool cucumber song:

“I’m super cool Kevin and this is my song!

Make like a cucumber, you can’t go wrong.

You wanna be cool? Then repeat after me:

I am a cucumber, cool as can be!”

But when Kevin starts to feel like his friends are leaving him out, something happens that has never happened before:

KEVIN.

LOSES.

HIS.

COOL!

Will Kevin’s friends be there for him when he needs them most?
