Description

Tom and Sally are sad at the thought of having to give up their allotment as their Mum is going back to work at the local library – they have so enjoyed spending time there over the summer! So they offer to take on looking after it themselves. They get the hang of it pretty quickly and start to be able to supply neighbours with the surplus veg they grow. This is a charming tale of how children can easily rise to meet challenges when given the opportunity, as well as giving inspiring examples of community spirit and solving problems as a team…it also contains simple growing directions and delicious recipes to try too!
