review 1: a fictionalized version of how the HIghline walkway/garden in Manhattan, New York City occurred…told in simple terms, with wonderful illustrations…the story is not idealized, and i love it that winter comes and covers things up, and the landscape that Liam first discovers looks mighty bleak. a very worthwhile read-aloud book, and plenty of illustrations to enliven the story, Peter Brown has done a masterful job.
review 2: My children and I really enjoyed both the story and illustrations in this book. We loved seeing how the garden grew, expanded and filled the city. It was great to see others throughout the city begin to take an interest in the garden and add their own unique touches to this very lovely and creative garden. Liam was a delightful chil... mored, and I love how he was not a gardener at first but slowly began to feel like one. (I have a bit of a black thumb but it gives me hope that maybe I can become better someday...). Wonderful! less
