Description

Anne of Green Tomatoes In the vines of Leamington, Ontario lives Anne, a green tomato and an aspiring writer. Every day at the market, the red tomatoes are set out on display. When there is a shortage of red tomatoes, the veggislature orders that green tomatoes be painted red in order to fill the basket at the market. Anne, too, is painted red. Distraught from her experience, she seeks out the friendship of another green tomato, Diane. With her new friend, Anne must learn to outsmart the veggislature authorities, or be caught and painted each day for the market.
