From Booklist:

Set during the Great Depression, this touching, inspiring picture book is told through letters written by a little girl. Tenhamm's Spanish version maintains the simplicity and tenderness of the original text, while Small's eloquent ink-and-pastel illustrations movingly depict Lydia Gracia's efforts to transform dour Tio Jim and his drab shop and apartment through her love of gardening. An editor's note briefly explains the effects of the Great Depression. REVWR
