When Timo signs up for the Great, Green Garden Tour, he feels pressure to make his garden "great" and neglects his friends to work in it. When his friends help him avoid a disaster, he realizes his friendships are more important than pride in his garden. Children are going to enjoy reading about Timo's garden adventures, and misadventures, in this charming chapter book. They will see how a fun activity can become a chore when you take it too far, and how that activity can take over your life if you are not careful.
