A classroom guinea pig finds a way to plant his own garden in this funny tale of pumpkins and patience. a After watching the first graders grow plants from seeds, Hercules, the class guinea pig, is inspired. He wants to grow things, too! a With the help of a rabbit named Daisy, Hercules plants his seeds and waits. And waits and waits. . . . He learns that growing things takes more than seeds and soil, sun and rain. It takes patience. But sometimes having to wait makes the reward even sweeter. a "Duke's story brims with humor of both the classroom and animal-buddy varieties, and her featherlight paintings capture every ounce of Herky's enthusiasm, impatience, and eventual satisfaction." -PW, starred review From the Hardcover edition.
