Memory Garden

About this book

Working side by side in a garden, a young girl's playful adventures with her grandmother tell a larger story of immigration and change. A lively afternoon together in Nana's garden is full of laughter, discovery, and connection. In lyrical text that blends past and present, Memory Garden takes us to the places we leave behind but never forget. Written and illustrated by a loving mother daughter duo, the nostalgic text and vibrant illustrations invite us to enjoy the beauty of Iranian gardens - and culture - in an adventure that will resonate with readers of all backgrounds.
