"Runaway Radish" by Jessie Haas follows the adventures of a young girl named Hattie who is determined to cultivate her own garden and grow the biggest radish for the county fair. When her prized radish sprouts unexpectedly bursts out of the ground and begins to roll away, Hattie embarks on a whimsical chase through her neighborhood. Along the way, she encounters various friends, animals, and challenges that test her determination and creativity. The story beautifully illustrates themes of perseverance, friendship, and the joy of nature, as Hattie learns valuable lessons about gardening and believing in herself.
