Contents: You may have heard of people talking to plants - but plants talking to people...? When the crafty creeper first speaks, softly and pathetically, to Mr. Parkin, the gentle gardener, he is flattered. But when he takes the plant home, he is shattered! The wonderful silliness of just how the creeper persecutes Mr. Parkin (who really cares only for his pumpkins) - and how he is rescued by the magnificent Lily Rose Willowherb - make this a story that will plant itself firmly in your affections.
Responsibility: Margaret Mahy ; illustrated by Helen Craig.
