Review:

In this third book of the Seed Savers series readers learn that Lily was on the hunt to find her dad. Readers will also learn what Clare and Dante have been doing in Canada. They’ve been assigned to a couple who have been teaching them about vegetables and canning.

In Lily’s travels she meets a couple, Abner and Evelyn who worked for the government and are allowed to grow a garden as long as they don’t sell or share what they produce. They tell her they knew her dad, J.H. Jiminez. She also learned that the Seed Saver network was massive and there was hope that GRIM could be eliminated. As the story of these three kids unfolds the question is will they ever get together with their families again or will they have to continue to hide from GRIM?

Readers who love adventure, mystery and learning about gardening will enjoy this series. The characters are brave and relatable. This what-if world will leave readers pondering what they would do if they were in this situation. This series would be perfect for classroom discussion about secret societies, government overreach, runaways and even breaking the law.
