Story
A wonderful story written by the master story teller Michael Morpurgo. READ BY CASSANDRA HARWOOD. Cool as a cucumber is a delightful story about a boy called Peter who at first seems a little reluctant to help dig up a garden patch for his school project to celebrate the Queen’s Jubilee. He then starts to dig up some interesting things-a hug worm, a big beetle, bits of china, an old coin and what looks like a giant cucumber, but turns out to be something a lot more exciting!
