Manny viene de una familia de jardineros, y para él, el mejor jardinero de todos es su papá. Papá siempre sabe lo que las plantas necesitan. Aún sin un jardín donde cultivar, convierte su pequeño apartamento en una exuberante jungla. Un día, llega el momento de que Manny tenga su primera planta. Papá confía en él para cuidar a su nueva amiga, y Manny está seguro de estar a la altura del desafío. Pero observar el trabajo magistral de papá no es lo mismo que saber todo lo que él sabe, ¡y la amiga de Manny sigue marchitándose, aún con todo lo que él intenta! Papá sabría qué hacer, pero esta es la planta de Manny, y él quiere ser el que la salve. Afortunadamente, antes de su nueva amiga, Manny tenía otra amiga: ¡la biblioteca! Un día de investigación y varios libros lo encaminan de nuevo en poco tiempo. La planta de Manny crece cada vez más, hasta que su habitación se llena de hojas hermosas y saludables, suficientes para que papá comparta esquejes con todo el vecindario. Ahora Manny puede decir con orgullo que es el más joven de una larga línea de jardineros. = Manny comes from a long line of gardeners, and to him, the greatest gardener of all is his dad. Dad always knows what plants need. Even with no yard to garden in, he tends their small apartment into a lush jungle. One day, the time comes for Manny to get his very own first plant! Dad trusts Manny to care for his new amigo, and Manny is determined to rise to the challenge. But watching Dad's masterful work isn't the same as knowing everything he knows, and Manny's amigo keeps wilting, no matter what he tries! Dad would know what to do, but this is Manny's plant, and he wants to be the one to save it. Luckily, before his new amigo, Manny had another friend: the library! A day of research and a stack of books gets him back on track in no time. Manny's plant grows bigger and bigger, until his room overflows with beautiful, healthy leaves, plentiful enough for Dad to share cuttings with the whole neighborhood. Now Manny can proudly say that he is the youngest in a long line of gardeners.- Subjects: Picture books.; Gardening; Fathers and sons; Diligence;
