What's Growing Season About
El and Jo are the smallest students in class–and best friends, too. But in springtime, something BIG happens: Jo starts growing like a weed . . . and El doesn’t. When their teacher asks every child to pick a plant to care for over the summer, poor El ends up with a tiny, flowerless aster. But slowly, the aster blooms–and so does El! A sweet picture book about the joys and challenges of growing up.
