The Grass is Always Greener on the Other Side

Gala Pont

"A picture book about envy that teaches us to cherish and care for what we have"

Simona loves the garden she shares with the Yellow Hedgehog. They spend their days exploring, taking afternoon naps and enjoying tasty snacks together. But one day Simona discovers that beyond her garden there are others – some more majestic, some more tropical, some truly spectacular... Suddenly she doesn’t love her own garden so much! Simona is about to learn that jealousy isn’t a good guide, and that the beauty of a garden isn’t just about how lush its plants are, but about the care and love we put into tending to it.
