A book to foster a love of nature. A child explores the natural world outside their door and finds comfort there in a time of grief.

The meadow behind Leif’s house contains a whole secret world. From bumblebees to spittlebugs, earthworms to mushrooms, Leif loves discovering all of its tiny joys and showing their great-grandmother all they find during their weekly visits. When their great-grandmother passes away, Leif and their mother remember her words: “when something goes, something grows.”
