One Minute PB Review - The Curious Garden
Peter Brown's The Curious Garden, about a boy creating beauty in a city without greenery, is a favorite in our household.
There once was a city without gardens or
trees or greenery of any kind.
Most people spent their time indoors.
As you can imagine, it was a very dreary place.
However, there was one boy who loved being outside.
When Liam discovers a few plants in an old railway, he tends to them to help them grow. They grow, and grow, and grow until ... the entire city has blossomed.
Favorite Line: But the most surprising things that popped up were the new gardeners.
Favorite Illustration: The moose, elephant and giraffe tree sculptures.
