Sprout is a potted plant that has only been able to grow two little leaves. She thinks things can't be right for her to grow on her small porch, so she sets off into the woods. But, the woods are too scary. Maybe the jungle will have what she needs? 

Oh, the plant puns! You'd better be-leaf this book has some good puns. The illustrations were quite adorable. I liked the message that we sometimes have what we need all along, we just have to look for it and be patient.
