Synopsis:
Long, long ago, sprites were the caretakers of gardens. Every flower was grown by their hand. But when humans appeared and began growing their own gardens, the sprites’ magical talents soon became a thing of the past. When Wisteria, an ambitious, kind-hearted sprite, starts to ask questions about the way things used to be, she’ll begin to unearth her long-lost talent of gardening. But her newly honed skills might not be the welcome surprise she intends them to be.
Sarah's Review:
This is a cute little book to read for spring. I think it's geared towards an elementary audience as it is not a super deep book. This book as themes of friendship, and teamwork, and a little bit of family. I would have really liked to see this book dive deeper into history of the sprites, the reason the mother has to work so much, and why Wisteria moved to a new town. As such, this book was just okay for me. I had higher hopes going into this book, and overall I wouldn't necessarily recommend it unless you have a little one at home that would like to read it, and look at the gorgeous artwork.
