Meet Ivy, a little girl whose special garden is unexpectedly closed for renovations. No one asked Ivy if that was ok… and it’s definitely not!

But Ivy’s huge imagination helps her work through her feelings of sadness and loss as she learns to accept the new garden for its beauty while cherishing memories of the old one.

This beautifully illustrated book is a heartwarming story about managing emotions and embracing change. Perfect for starting conversations about life changes—especially those beyond a child’s control—Ivy's New Garden reminds us all to stay open to new possibilities.

A bit about me: I am an Irish SLP (and mother to three daughters) living in Paris, France. I have lived all over the world, am a 'bilingual speechie' and specialize in working with bilingual children presenting with language delay and disorder.
