A very sweet and hopeful story lightly tackling important themes of acceptance and racism/xenophobia that are always relevant but especially in the current sociopolitical climate.

I liked how the author made the animals and plants come to life as characters. I also appreciated the humor peppered here and there.

On a side note, I found the story of Maeve really interesting, I'd happily read an entire novel expanding on it.
