From the author-artist of Beyond the Pond and Rulers of the Playground comes a breathtaking new book with a powerful message about the environment—about a lonely digger in an industrial world who finds a flower, an encounter that ends up changing his whole world.

Each day, the big trucks go to work. They scoop and hoist and push.

But when Digger discovers something growing in the rubble, he sets in motion a series of events that will change him, and the city, forever.

This beautifully spare story has a powerful message of friendship and environmentalism.
