Reviews
"A beautiful, multicolored harvest. The message of diversity, people, and sensibility is universal, and beautifully cultivated by an author who has a green thumb with words." -- School Library Journal (starred review) "The story's quiet beauty unfurls effortlessly and lingers after the final page has been turned." -- Publishers Weekly (starred review) "Each voice sings with the rhythm of culture and personality." -- Children's Book Review Magazine "The characters' vitality and the sharply delineated details of the neighborhood make this not merely an exercise in craftsmanship or morality but an engaging, entertaining novel as well." -- ALA Booklist (starred review) "Innovative. Effective." -- Horn Book Magazine

Synopsis
ALA Best Book for Young Adults School Library Journal Best Book Publishers Weekly Best Book IRA/CBC Children's Choice NCTE Notable Children's Book in the Language Arts A Vietnamese girl plants six lima beans in a Cleveland vacant lot. Looking down on the immigrant-filled neighborhood, a Romanian woman watches suspiciously. A school janitor gets involved, then a Guatemalan family. Then muscle-bound Curtis, trying to win back Lateesha. Pregnant Maricela. Amir from India. A sense of community sprouts and spreads. Newbery-winning author Paul Fleischman uses thirteen speakers to bring to life a community garden's founding and first year. The book's short length, diverse cast, and suitability for adults as well as children have led it to be used in countless one-book reads in schools and in cities across the country. Seedfolks has been drawn upon to teach tolerance, read in ESL classes, promoted by urban gardeners, and performed in schools and on stages from South Africa to Broadway. The book's many tributaries--from the author's immigrant grandfather to his adoption of two brothers from Mexico--are detailed in his forthcoming memoir , No Map, Great Trip: A Young Writer's Road to Page One.
