A child and her elderly friend garden together alongside friends and neighbors in this vibrant and touching tale of joyful work, loss, and promise. (Miller Library Staff)
This inspiring picture book celebrates the friendship between a young girl and an elderly woman as they plant seeds in a community garden alongside friends and neighbors, waiting for the seeds to flower. By mid-summer, the friends welcome a rainbow of color in the garden and picnics in the sun. At harvest, the young girl's elderly friend is bed-ridden, but jubilant as they share baskets with red tomatoes and snap peas amid the sweet smell of lavender. When the last leaves fall, everything is different. But in the spring, hope arises anew.
Recommended for preschool (age 0-5) and primary school (age 6-12).
Translated from the German.
