A bountiful celebration of community, teamwork, and gardening from bestselling author Ruth Spiro and award-winning artist Paola Escobar.
A child and a seedling find themselves at home in their local urban community garden. With the help of firefighters, chefs, shopkeepers, and many more members of their community, they grow alongside the flowers, vegetables, friendships, and more all summer long, together.
Young readers and gardeners will also love the backmatter with fun facts about the produce grown in the story.
