About This Book
A series of episodic, gently comic tales follows a bright, wistful girl and her brother as they make a hidden garden in a cluttered back yard, care for a tiny plant they hope will become a flower, and meet neighbors whose mischief and kindness shape their days. Scenes move through play, small domestic trials, visits and surprises, and family arrivals, emphasizing youthful resourcefulness, imagination, and the everyday wonders of ordinary summer life.
