In a style of sparse text, this is the story of a girl who visits her grandma in the country for a birthday party. When she gets bored of the party she goes out to the garden and gets lost in a world of her imagination.
This book is perfectly delightful. It has smaller than normal dimensions but is hefty in pages. The illustrations are fun to look at and the story will hopefully encourage readers to find their own adventures in the backyard.
