He just had a yard  a yard he didnt want to mow. But under the direction of the wise (and ecologically sensitive) Little Red Hen Mac learns to look at the environment in a very different way and whole new worlds start to bloom with the help of some mud garbage horse poop and worms! Judy Sierras spirited verse paired with Matthew Myerss exuberant illustrations yields a fresh take on a childrens classic complete with raised-bed gardens and an organic farmers marketmaking this a perfect story for armchair gardeners and devoted locavores of all sizes.
