“Liam, Liam, not the least bit contrary, how does your garden grow?”

With love, actually.

Meet Liam, a sweet city kid who discovers a tiny patch of greenery while walking along some abandoned railroad tracks. Over time he nurtures the weeds, mosses, and struggling plants he sees and a flowering oasis begins to fan out over his once bleak city.

Inspired by the West Side’s High Line railway, author Peter Brown’s The Curious Garden picture book reminds us that nature can thrive anywhere and that even the smallest of human beings can make a huge difference.

Just the type of story we could stand to hear more of.
