About this listen

You can listen to this feel-good story for free on your device with the Audible Stories Skill. Just say “Alexa, read me a feel good story,” or “Alexa, read me a story” to hear more free genres.

Polly lets her elderly neighbor Edith wander in and out of her yard, unlike other people on the block who shoo Edith along. Over the winter, Edith’s children move her into assisted living, and when spring comes, Polly’s yard explodes in a profusion of flowers—the surprise fruits of Edith’s labors.

Aggie Blum Thompson worked as a newspaper reporter, covering cops, courts, and trials, with a healthy dose of the mundane mixed in before turning to thrillers. A native New Yorker, she now lives just over the Washington, DC, line in Bethesda, Maryland with her husband, two children, cat, and dog.

A little plant magic

Much packed into 5 minutes. Thought provoking on multiple levels. Well done to the author and well read.
