July 2024 Debut of the Month

Brothers Theo and Jeremiah fear they are in lots of trouble when Jeremiah’s sunflower plant grows at a monstrous rate overnight. What will the other residents of their tower block say? As they search each floor for the top of the plant, they meet a diverse and friendly community of neighbours who agree to help them - even the scary old man from Flat 62 finds a smile. But what will they find at the top? And can a few magical seeds really bring lasting happiness to the block residents?

A joyous story complimented by charming illustrations, this is a welcome celebration of tower block living, and the power of nature to heal and connect communities. Grief is subtly included in the background to the story, as the brothers miss their dead father, taking courage and inspiration from his memory. Comparisons with Jack and the Beanstalk are inevitable, and this book proves a delightful modern update to the traditional tale. A lovely addition to any book collection.
