Green Green: A Community Gardening Story by Marie Lamba, Baldev Lamba

3.0

I really wanted to like this book, but I had trouble following the narrative (partway through I had to look back because I wasn't sure if I had missed something) and the vast array of characters, who I thought I was supposed to follow through the story, didn't really align when I read it again. That bummed me out because I wanted to love it, but the first "stanza" didn't seem to fit with the rest of the rhyming prose in the story for me. I appreciated the diversity amongst the people in the story and the illustrations were lovely and lively. This would be good to share before having students plant their own garden or seedlings - especially with the additional information in the back matter.
