Critics Review
⭐ “In this deceptively simple, sparkling debut, Percival conveys the joy children can feel in working together, being outdoors, and eating food they’ve grown themselves—all with a fizzy immediacy.” —Publishers Weekly (STARRED REVIEW)
“This gentle and engaging book for very young children captures the joy of connecting with nature and making things grow together.” —The Boston Globe
About The Author
Kari Percival
Kari Percival’s illustration style is rooted in the woodcuts she’s been carving and printing for more than two decades. Kari is a 2017 recipient of the New England SCBWI Four-by-Four Mentorship. She earned a BFA from the School of the Art Institute of Chicago and a Master’s in Education and Environmental Science from Antioch University. Ecology has always been her favorite topic to teach, whether in the classroom or in the community garden. Kari lives with her husband and two children just outside Boston near a magical waterfall. On rainy days, she can be found rescuing earth worms out of puddles (because she just can’t walk by when they are wiggling for help).
