## Plot

In this book Terry is training Ninja Snails. Andy gets angry at him because Terry does not remember that it is Andy's birthday. So Andy puts Terry in their remembering booth, but he still does not remember. However, he does remember that Mr. Big Nose should have called them by then. Then they call him on their 3D video phone, but his office is ravaged. So they go to their high-tech detective agency and take all of the tests. Then they start thinking while eating hot donuts. Eventually they get the idea of going to Mr. Big Nose's office to look for clues. Soon Terry has a funny idea that he can trick Andy with a disguise. So he disguises as an old man, a frogpotamus, and a stop sign. Then they take their flying fried-egg car to Big Nose Books. As they arrive, they find a book called Fun With Vegetables by Vegetable Patty. It is so gruesome to vegetables that Terry covers his eyes. When they look around a little bit more, they find a caterpillar that looks very scared. So they go to Jill's house, but it's covered in vines. They cut the vines with their machetes and inside they find Jill and her animals sleeping. So they make loud noises with megaphones, gongs, air horns, electric guitars, jackhammers, and dynamite. They get so desparate that Andy kisses her on the cheek, but even that does not work. So they take her to find a prince in a vegetable castle. On the journey they encounter enormous black birds, steamrollers, rhinoceroses, balloon goons, giant mutant spiders, and a very grumpy tomato. The caterpillar eats them all. Then, when they get to a wall of asparagus, the caterpillar eats his way into the wall until they all get to the other side. There they find a society of vegetables, and an ugly prince named Prince Potato. He kisses her, and they are revealed to be humans disguising as vegetables. Soon they get thrown in a dungeon, and there they find Mr. Big Nose in shackles because he published the horrible book: Fun With Vegetables. In a few minutes they get thrown into a boiling pot, and the vegetables start singing a horrid song about punishing humans for cooking other vegetables. However, the vegetables soon fall asleep. Then Vegetable Patty comes and rescues them from the vegetables, takes Mr. Big Nose with her and send the rest to the tram station. There they take a tram back to the treehouse, and Terry reveals that he does not know what day his birthday is. So Andy and Terry share a birthday, and their gift is another treehouse book made by the animals and Jill as a thank you gift. But then they need to send the book to Mr. Big Nose, They can't use the cannon because a bird has hatched her eggs in it, or the flying cats due to them being on holiday at the Catnary Islands, So Terry uses the Ninja Snails to deliver the book, So he uses the cursed carrot to put Greenwich Time HQ to sleep, Then he sends the Ninja Snails to Big Nose Books,

### 100 years later...
