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.
Perfect for readers of We Are the Gardeners and Dear Girl, young readers and gardeners will also love the backmatter with fun facts about the produce grown in the story.
Come dig in the dirt with your friends and your neighbors!
Spiro’s text rhymes with a bouncy beat. Little garden lovers will enjoy the variety in Escobar’s illustrations. Characters vary widely in terms of age, gender, skin tone, and ability, creating a welcoming community, diverse in people and plants, where everyone’s efforts are valued. Consider this tale a fun springtime read-aloud for older toddlers or preschoolers to kickstart discussions about gardens, the plants we eat, and the importance of working together as a team. A sunny celebration of community, teamwork, and cooperative gardening along with its delectable rewards. — Kirkus
