About this book

It’s evening in the supermarket and the veggies are preparing for the week ahead with a nice, bubbly bath. All seems well, and the happy veg show off their bubble hats and beards to Supertato while splashing around in the water. But what’s this? Thatpesky, villainouspea is back,and he has just poured a whole bottle of Troubly Bubbles into the tub!  

As the bubbly chaos spirals out of control, Supertato and the veggies search for a solution with the help of a very groovy mango. Can they use science to help put an end to the pea’s bubbly mischief? 

The ever-popular Supertato series strikes again with this fun-filled, humorous romp.As our favourite potato hero leads a team of vegetables around the store, they end up in some hilarious situations before eventually working together to save the day. 

Children will love the quirky illustrations and will enjoy spotting half-hidden characters immersed in the bubbles. As well as being light-hearted, this book also introduces some real science to children, and would be a great choice to add some humour to bathtime routines at home.
