About This Book
Reach for this book when your child feels limited by their surroundings or expresses a deep desire for a creative project that seems out of reach. It is a perfect choice for urban families looking to foster a connection with nature, even without a backyard. The story follows Errol, a young boy with a passion for gardening who refuses to let his small apartment stop him from growing things. Through beautiful illustrations of a diverse city neighborhood, the book explores themes of perseverance, community collaboration, and the joy of seeing a hard-earned dream come to fruition. Suitable for ages 3 to 7, it models how one person's vision can inspire a whole community to work together. Parents will appreciate the gentle way it encourages children to look for solutions rather than focusing on obstacles, turning a lonely hobby into a shared celebration.
What Parents Should Know
Sensitive Topics
The book is entirely secular and grounded in realistic fiction. It touches lightly on the frustration of physical limitations (lack of space), but the resolution is consistently hopeful and proactive.
