Tucker, Zoë,

The garden we share / by Zoë Tucker ; illustrated by Julianna Swaney. - 1 volume (unpaged) : color illustrations ; 29 cm

First published in Switzerland by NordSüd Verlag in 2022 as Ein garten für uns.

This inspiring picture book celebrates the friendship between a young girl and an elderly woman as they plant seeds in a community garden alongside friends and neighbors, waiting for the seeds to flower. By mid-summer, the friends welcome a rainbow of color in the garden and picnics in the sun. At harvest, the young girl's elderly friend is bed-ridden, but jubilant as they share baskets with red tomatoes and snap peas amid the sweet smell of lavender. When the last leaves fall, everything is different. But in the spring, hope arises anew.
