While her family works on the farm, young Bông plants her very own corn seed. When only a single sprout emerges, she names it Xanh Mướt (Lush Green) and treats it like a dear friend—singing, reading books, and protecting it from pests and weeds. When her corn stalk starts looking droopy, clues from nature help Bông figure out just what it needs to thrive. A heartwarming, beautifully illustrated tale celebrating patience, gardening, and childhood imagination.
