This is a gorgeous book! I love the illustrations that luminously bring a simple yet meaningful tale to life – the timeless themes of gardening, mothers, sharing and community. The rhyme generates a lyrical flow and pace that make the story and the message go straight into your heart. The story is told with a light-heartedness and joy and is a salve to our too fast lifestyle these days, helping us to connect with a kind of old-world grace. I love this book!
