Reviews"Essential and beautiful. June in the Garden is a primer in empathy and compassion. We all live, perhaps unconsciously, by our own rules. June's rules aren't all that different; they're just clearly stated and at the very forefront of her thinking. Over time they've been her anchor and her scaffold, how she learned to climb through the world. But when life presents her with a new and different kind of landscape, we learn that those around her bear more than just a little responsibility for helping her find the next foothold. June's literal thinking leads us to the heart of all the questions we hope we'll never have to answer: Where will I go? What will I do? Who will love me? There's a little bit of June in each of us, waiting anxiously for the rest of the garden to bloom." --Benjamin Ludwig, author of Ginny Moon " June in the Garden is the book we all need right now. It's heartwarming, witty, and ever so wise. Eleanor Wilde deftly weaves some serious themes into this perceptive and uplifting story about family and finding a place in the world. It's a tender celebration of differences, and of allowing people to blossom. June is a delightfully unique, endearing protagonist who sees the world differently, and through her eyes, you'll see things differently too. June in the Garden is an absorbing, poignant, and wholly original read. June will remain firmly embedded in your heart, long after the final page. I loved it." --Jane Tara, author of Tilda is Visible (forthcoming from Crown, February 2025) " June in the Garden is a story that will weed its way into your heart. June is a lovely character you can't help but root for, and her journey is at once a story of grief and coming of age, while also exploring independence and what it means to be a person. I cried; I cheered; I wanted to get my hands into the dirt alongside June, if she would let me." --Rachel Mans McKenny, author of The Butterfly Effect, "Essential and beautiful.

SynopsisJune views the world differently than others. A keen horticulturist, she can name every flower species in the alphabet (J begins with the Jamaica Plum). Yet, when it comes to people and relationships, she's still cultivating an understanding. After her mother's unexpected death, June must vacate her home. But when the social worker urges her to move into a flat with no garden--clearly, that won't work. With no other options, she embarks on her first solo trip in search of a father she's only seen in a single old photograph. When June unexpectedly shows up at her father's door, he panics and turns her away, unwilling to jeopardize his idyllic life and new family. On her way out, June spies an unruly backyard and with nowhere else to go, quietly moves into her father's yellow garden shed. Once again, she can spend her days surrounded by her beloved flowers. But when her father's 12-year-old son--her half-brother--discovers June, she must choose between being seen for the first time or running away yet again. A beautiful and heartwarming portrait of a young woman who looks at the world differently, June in the Garden encourages others to do the same. Because thinking unconventionally is not a flaw, it's often the key to appreciating the wonder and bloom that surrounds us.
