After sketching and plotting and planting, Maxine and Leo know they' ve made The Greatest Garden Ever! But they' re not the only ones who think so. Soon, all sorts of animals make their way in, munching on carrots and knocking over pots. When Leo and Maxine can' t agree on a way to get rid of these unwelcome critters, it looks like there' s more on the line than saving their garden-they just might need to save their friendship too.
