COMMUNITY REVIEWS

Somewhat boring dtory submitted by margaretfrye on June 17, 2023, 9:02pm My 6 year old was excited to read this to her doll Melody. She was able to read most of the words (needed help on a few longer ones) but didn’t seem that into the story, which was mostly about a community garden that needed cleaning up. The link between the garden and the racism was pretty tenuous, and the book went from dealing with racism to her cleaning litter with little segue.
