Little Seeds of Promise

Age range 3 to 6

A wonderful picture book from an award-winning publisher that explores identity, the patience of growing things and finding a home in a new place, the connection of scent to memory and loved ones, and the promise that beauty can happen even when things change.

When Maya moves to a different country, she feels lonely and lost. Everything — and everyone — seems so unfamiliar here, and she wonders if she will ever find a way to fit in. Longing for her home, she holds tightly to the special seeds her grandmother gave her, afraid to plant them. Can she take the risk that they — and she —might grow and bloom in this new place?
