"A little girl is walking through her village collecting seeds, support and advice for a forest garden project in her community. Proposing a reality that defies either-or thinking as well as nutritional and gender stereotypes, Mirabelle's journey engages the reader in a joyful multi-purpose vision of a forest garden. Educational activities and questions are interwoven with community building, plant knowledge and engaging artwork. A story that goes beyond trees and plants to community sharing and caring for others."--Publisher's description.
