In this story, a boy (who has been staying with his grandparents) tells his mother about all the things his grandfather grows; nothing he has at home seems to be as good. His mother takes him shopping for fresh fruit, and the boy explains that although he helped his grandfather pick fruit, he didn’t want to eat any. The grandparents arrive and make a tempting looking fruit salad. The boy is surprised to find that he likes it after all.
