Bookroo's summary

As her mother finishes her hair, a curious girl wonders what 'homegrown' means. Through cherished memories and vibrant family moments, Mama and Granny reveal that home is more than a place—it's the love and support of those who nurture us. This beautifully illustrated tale invites readers to explore the essence of home and the bonds that define it.

From the publisher

A touching and stunningly illustrated ode to the homes–and loved ones–that raise us, perfect for fans of Black Is a Rainbow Color, Saturday, and Last Stop on Market Street.While her mother puts the finishing touches on her twists, a young girl asks what it means to be “homegrown”. Touring precious memories and lively rooms warmed by family, Mama and Granny explain that home isn’t just a place, but rather a reflection of people who support and love one another. With lush, cozy illustrations, Homegrown is a beautiful author-illustrator debut picture book that reminds us to lift up the places–and people–we call home.
