It's a quiet, sweet book narrated by the great-grandson of a gardener. He shows the reader all the important things that happened in his great-grandfather's life - you know they were the important things because there are topiaries in his great-grandfather's garden representing them. Some are silly, some are sad. I love the respect shown to the great-grandfather, and that his passion is horticulture (somewhat non-traditional for a man), and the connection between the child and his Grandpa Green.
