Batchelder Honor recipient Sonja Danowski has created a new story reminding us that love, patience, and a sense of humour help any garden to flower.

What a fuss! Linn’s grandfather has broken his leg. Fortunately, his granddaughter Linn offers to take care of his spectacular garden. After all, Linn has helped out in the garden many times and knows a lot about plants.

With Linn’s dog, Flori, and her good friend, Emi, by her side, what could go wrong? But when mischievous Flori causes a mess, Linn has to learn to deal with a difficult situation. Taking responsibility for the first time is a big step.

Together with Linn, we experience pride in the trust placed in us as well as self-doubts along the way. Sonja Danowski's lovingly detailed illustrations appear almost lifelike and unfold with incomparable magic.

In The Garden With Flori is a tale that encapsulates patience and growth through challenges, beautifully brought to life by vivid illustrations.
