Avocado Magic

By Taltal Levi | Publisher: NorthSouth Books

About the book

Ellie is sulking—she celebrated her birthday yesterday under the old avocado tree. But she’s not even a little bit taller today! Dad tells Ellie a secret. It’s like the pit of an avocado, he explains, small and full of magic. Together they put the seed in a glass of water by the window and we watch both Ellie and her avocado plant grow, take root, and eventually bring new life.

In Taltal Levi’s native country Israel, avocados are ubiquitous and plucked straight from the tree. In her third book, Taltal Levi uses warm, earthy colors to tell a personal yet universal story about the magic of growth.
