Discover the unbe-leaf-ably adorable story of a young plant with mulch to learn in this feel-good tale perfect for fans of The Bad Seed and Grumpy Monkey.
Sprout the plant lives on a small porch, in a little town. She’s only been able to grow two leaves and knows exactly why. Home is just not enough for her – she needs to venture out to the wild woods, the wise forest, and the lush jungle to find what she needs to thrive.
But once she’s out in the world, Sprout quickly learns that what she really needs may not be what she thought at all . . .
Meet a budding new picture book character with roots in this hilarious and heartfelt adventure about growing up, taking risks, and finding home again.
PUBLISHERS WEEKLY
Von Innerebner humorously presents the punny story of a potted sprig with forest-size ambitions in this grow-where-you're-planted story. Frustrated that she's only grown two leaves, small-town Sprout offers reasons as to why she's failing to thrive: "It's not wild enough here! I should be in the woods where it's SO wild, I'd grow leaves on my chest." Inspired by a travel brochure, Sprout sets off for new canopies ("Seed ya later!"). After a wild wood proves too scary, a "tall, wise forest" too advanced, and a rainforest-like jungle too damp, Sprout finally concludes that there's no place like home. Awash in bright shades of green, unlined digital artwork animates its foliage with friendly faces that frequently pipe up ("You grow, girl!" and "I'm an unbe-leaf-able listener"). It's a lightweight, wordplay-forward adventure for budding sprouts. Ages 3–6.
