Description: "Daisy was born with a green thumb. As an infant, she composted her own baby food. As a toddler, she slept on a bed of leaves. Now she's embarking on her most important experiment: she'll plant herself on her manicured front lawn, stay put, and let nature take over ... With a little help from expert gardener Auntie Betsy, Daisy thrives. Sunflowers grow in her hair, moss grows between her toes, hummingbirds buzz in her bee balm. Soon Daisy's front yard is a haven for native grasses and flowers, for pollinating insects, for birds, even for lowly worms. And that's when her real work begins"--

Review Quotes: ★ "[A]n engaging entry point into conversations about rewilding and biodiversity. Countless plant puns sprout up on each page, adding delightful bits of humor.... Stellar pacing helps readers appreciate the beauty of individual flora and fauna while building vocabulary.... A botanical wonder indeed." --Kirkus Reviews, starred review

"Illustrations by Kerascoët exude sunny abundance and playful grace, showing Daisy fully embracing her "rewilding" as an expression of both budding autonomy and green principles." --Publishers Weekly

"A well-rooted addition to ecology-themed shelves, this imaginative offering will enliven conversations about environmental stewardship." --Booklist
