Jerome the Gnome takes readers on whimsical adventures through his garden, celebrating discovery and sowing the imagination as he introduces such topics as science, environmental awareness, and agriculture.
In How to Grow Happiness, Jerome and his fellow Garden of Wonder dwellers—including Oakie, his pet acorn, Nutilda, a hyperactive squirrel, and Warble, a fast-talking bird—learn what it takes to make a happiness seed blossom. Through patience, asking for and receiving guidance, and team work, Jerome and his friends take the little black seed left on the window sill, and find ways to help it grow into its own, and they soon find that as it flourishes, so too does their own happiness.
