Stories come in all shapes and sizes. This image is from my picture book, TAKÓŽA: WALKS WITH THE BLUE MOON GIRL, written by Tara Perron. TAKÓŽA (grandchild) learns about gardening ( and seeds) from her Kúŋši (grandmother). This endearing, lyrical picture book is full of love, family and community. #Cozytober is a month-long art prompt during October.
