Summary

In the Garden of Goals, eight-year-old Piera transforms a forgotten plot behind the old mill into a living roadmap for her dreams. Each raised bed section—Treehouse, Art, and Share—is seeded with plants linked to her token-based goals. Through yield estimation, frost setbacks, pest patrols, and community collaborations, Piera learns planning, risk management, and the joy of giving. As her tomatoes, berries, and green beans flourish, tokens fill jars that pay for paints, a soaring treehouse, and fresh produce donations. This vibrant tale sows lessons in ambition, resourcefulness, and generosity, nurturing young readers’ own growth and goal-setting spirit.
