Abstract	"A picture book about persistence, being creative in the garden, and adapting to a new place. When Amina moves from the Caribbean to a new snowy home, she misses growing her favorite foods. There are no coconut trees to climb, no gardens full of sweet potatoes and callaloo--only ice and snow. As Amina looks out her frosted window, she sings a traditional children's song from back home, adding her own twist: 'There's a brown girl in the snow, tra la la la la, where none of her plants will grow.' Determined to find a way to make her favorite plants grow in a new climate, she comes across a possible solution after discovering a library book about gardening and greenhouses. Perhaps there is a way to grow sweet potatoes, after all! "-- Provided by publisher.
