Is there room for a garden in the city? When young Mae first arrives at her new apartment, the gray is unremitting and she misses her apple tree and daffodils. After a couple of false starts, Mae figures out a way to bring green leaves back into her life. (Miller Library Staff) When Mae's family moves to a new home, she wishes she could bring her garden with her. She'll miss the apple trees, the daffodils, and chasing butterflies in the wavy grass. But there's no room for a garden in the city. Or is there? Mae's story, gorgeously illustrated in watercolor, is a celebration of friendship, resilience in the face of change, and the magic of the natural world. -- From dust jacket.
