Bookroo's summary

Sadiq spots an empty lot in his neighborhood and envisions a vibrant community garden. Inspired by a school project, he rallies his siblings and classmates to turn this dream into reality. But how do they start, and will the community join in? As Sadiq navigates these challenges, the stakes are high: can they cultivate not just plants, but a sense of community? Dive into this heartwarming tale of teamwork and transformation.

From the publisher

On the way to the library, Sadiq and his family pass an empty lot in their neighborhood. It looks like it could use some attention. Sadiq and his brothers and sisters come up with ideas for what the lot could be. A playground? A skatepark? Then a science unit about plants at school gives Sadiq and Hooyo another idea–a community garden! But where to begin? And how to get people involved? It’s up to Sadiq and his classmates to “dig in” and make the community garden a success!
