About the book:
Mrs Greenfingers was puzzled – who or what kept eating the sunflower seeds when she wasn’t looking? Come with her to find out. Was it the cheeky robin, or the big blackbird? Maybe it was her friend the squirrel, or the hedgehog who visited her garden each night. Or something else. She sets out to solve the mystery – and to protect her last seed!
Through Mrs Greenfingers’ love and attention, the seed grew bigger, and bigger, until it became the tallest sunflower anyone had ever seen. It was a real giant! Everyone was amazed. She never did find out who was eating her seeds, but her giant sunflower produced enough seeds to feed all the garden animals and birds – and many more for all her friends to grow their own beautiful sunflowers.
The book is a fast paced and educational ‘whodunnit’ story for parents and carers to read to children, or for young readers to read on their own. Beautifully illustrated in collaboration with professional illustrator, Sarah Leigh Wills, the book shares an exciting story, based on author Joanne Timperley’s real life experience, and encourages the reader to find out more about garden wildlife and, indeed, provides all the information required to grow their own sunflowers.
