About this episode
The episode discusses 'The Magnificent Mr. & Mrs. Maple', a children's book about love and family among plants in a Harlem garden.
"The Magnificent Mr. & Mrs. Maple" is the (almost) true story of two trees in a Harlem garden and the family of plants & critters that love them. When fate threatens to separate them, they all learn to value the invisible bonds of love and family. In addition to Mr. & Mrs. Maple, there is Nosy, the busybody bee...a silly spider named Sally and JoRo, a jolly pigeon. Juniper and Boxwood round out the blended family who make their home on a New York City terrace overlooking the famous Apollo Theater.Charmingly illustrated, this long-distance love story for children will also be enjoyed by adults and help readers understand that everyone can "bloom where they're planted," even when separated by circumstances beyond their control. The Foreword, by NYT Bestselling author Dr. Kerry Burnight, further emphasizes the benefits of the theme for older individuals. Out Everywhere books are sold or got nelsonaspen.com Out everyhwere
