"The Enormous Turnip" is a popular folk tale that has been adapted into various children's books and retellings. The story revolves around a turnip that grows to an extraordinary size, making it impossible for a single person to pull it out of the ground.

In the story, a farmer plants a tiny turnip seed and nurtures it with care. As the turnip grows, it becomes larger and larger until it reaches an enormous size. The farmer tries to pull it out but fails, so he enlists the help of his family members, neighbors, and even various animals, each adding their strength to the endeavor.
