Rose, who travels the world in a giant teapot, stops in a city to plant her seed collection. Her faith that the garden will grow attracts children, who bring paper flowers and tell her their stories. Eventually Rose realizes she has made herself a home. In a nice touch, the brownish-gray illustrations become multicolored as the blooms appear.
