Vivalina Grows a Gourd

Written by Graham Ottoson and illustrated by Sue Brightly.

A crushed Spin-a-Lin-a-Lingo.
A fumbled Chicka Lick Woo-Dee-Hoo.
A smashed Three-Handled Tea Tippy!
Vivalina Vole just can't find a safe place to work on her art projects.
Creative children from 4-14 will nod their heads in understanding.

What's a young DIY'er to do? With a little help from her beloved Auntie Vi, Vivalina discovers a solution that grows her experiences with patience, disappointment, nature, and working together. All while growing her own magnificent studio!

Bonus content: Empower your own creativity with a friendly guide to growing and decorating a gourd of your own, from the Empress of Gourdlandia herself.
