About Our Book

Picture
Big Brothers Big Sisters Program youth mentor, Gail Wilczynski, and her six "little sisters" write about their relationship, the garden they created, and the girls' dream of traveling to Washington,D.C.

Along the way they see the value in new short-term educational experiences, and learn that it can be fun giving back to the community and helping other young people reach for their dreams, too. 

Included in the book are complete directions for construction of raised bed garden boxes,
gardening tips, fun nutritional facts, recipes and poems.
