Larry is a gardener and a teacher – in real life! He used gardening to teach life skills. We could all take a lesson from him! In this story based on his life, he helps little next-door neighbor Grace some problems they encounter in trying to grow unusual vegetables.

Colorful gouache illustrations (Kass Reich) are adequate.
