Something green First introduced in the bestselling Mortimer's Christmas Manger , Mortimer Mouse returns with gutso in this inspirational offering that celebrates the miracle of springtime.
Great story about how gardening works, but religious.

I love this story. My almost 2 year old is going to help us garden this year, and I thought this would be a good introducing to the ideas of how a garden works. It is, except for several mentions of God. As a non-religious family, I'm very disappointed I didn't realize that's what divine meant. We will be donating this book.
