'An urban African-American girl and her father buy plants, potting soil, and a window box at the supermarket, ride the bus to their apartment, and put together a colourful gift for the child's mother.Rhyming verse carries the brief story, while wonderful, warm, full-colour illustrations present scenes from novel angles, and depict a loving family with a sense of intimacy, sincerity, and joy.'--School Library Journal
