The Sprite and the Gardener by Joe Whitt, Rii Abrego
4.0

Sprite and the Gardener is the charming story of Wisteria and Elena, a sprite and a would-be gardener. Elena hopes to restore her mother’s garden, where she is observed by the curious sprite. Wisteria is a small sprite with gardening magic, but her talent has long been dormant. As she starts to learn about gardening with Elena, she will have to choose whether to let her sprite friends know about the garden.

The story has a nice message about trying new things and working together. The art is very bright and colorful, with lots of beautiful plants. Sprite and the Gardener is a gentle and welcoming tale about friendship. This is another great story from Oni Press and I would highly recommend it! Thank you so much to Joe Whitt, Rii Abrego, Oni Press, and Netgalley for a free ARC in exchange for an honest review.
