Grandma's Roof Garden

Dynamic colored-pencil illustrations match the energy of their subject in this story of a green-thumbed grandmother. Feeding her hens and geese, composting, watering, weeding, and harvesting, it’s all in a day’s work for Granny as she tends to her rooftop garden. Though she may seem strange to some, no one turns down a basket of her fresh vegetables—or an invitation to her table. Inspired by the author’s own grandmother, love sprouts from the pages of this charming picture book.
