A farmer plants a turnip that grows bigger and bigger until it becomes enormous. When he tries to pull it out, he cannot do it alone. He calls for help, and one by one more people and animals join in—each holding on and pulling together. At last, with everyone working as a team, the giant turnip finally comes out of the ground. The story shows how cooperation can achieve what one person cannot do alone.
