Description

A wordless picture book for the very young – bursting with green! – which celebrates community, gardening and the power of plants to bring people together.

Oscar's Tower of Flowers tells the story of Oscar whose mum has to go away, just for a little while. So Oscar has come to stay with his nana. Oscar enjoys being with Nana in her tower block, but he really misses his mum too. Then one day, Nana has an idea. Together, they carefully sow seeds – lots and lots of seeds! They water them and wait… and the seeds start to grow! Flowers begin to burst out everywhere. But, what to do with them all?

In this timely silent narrative for the youngest readers, gorgeously illustrated with graphic panels and sweeping spreads that evoke the urban bustle of a busy high-rise, Lauren Tobia shows how each individual, each child, can bring lushness and vitality to a community.
