One boys quest for a greener world... one garden at a time. A little boy named Liam discovers a struggling garden and decides to take care of it. As time passes, the garden spreads throughout the dark, gray city, transforming it into a lush, green world.
Reviews:
"A curious boy's discovery of a tiny garden in an otherwise gray and dismal city leads to amazing changes...Brown's acrylic and gouache scenes are cleverly animated and accompanied by a lively musical track." - Starred Review, School Library Journal
"Ambient background sounds (falling rain, snipping pruning shears) and David Mansfield's jaunty music (harmonica, violin, and other instruments) accompany iconographic and animated images that pop with color." - Booklist
"Highly recommended. Editor's Choice." - ****, Video Librarian
