Description

Harry Hale owns a vacant lot that he hasn't visited for years. -What good is an empty lot?- he thinks, and he makes up his mind to sell it. But when Harry visits his lot to decide on a price, he's surprised to find that it's far from empty. In fact, his little patch of land is bursting with life. -A sweet and gentle plea for saving the earth.- --Horn Book Guide -A provocative story that gives a clear message of conservation and brings it into focus for young audiences. . . . Arnosky's watercolor illustrations bring a freshness to the 'deserted' lot and are constant reminders of all living creatures, large and small, that share this planet.- --School Library Journal
