The Night The Garden Went Quiet

By Becky Fry

When Maya Marigold steps into Grandmother's garden one morning, something is terribly wrong.

The flowers are still there. The leaves still rustle. But the familiar zip, flutter, scratch, and buzz of the garden have disappeared.

Determined to bring the missing pollinators home, Maya follows the clues with the help of Bumble, a very round and slightly worried bumblebee; Ruby Throat, a quick-witted hummingbird; Mina Moonmoth, a gentle nighttime visitor; and wise Grandmother Marigold. Together, they discover that the pollinators are not lost at all-the garden simply stopped providing the food they needed.

With seeds, patience, and a thoughtful plan for every season, Maya learns how one small gardener can make a big difference.

The Night the Garden Went Quiet is a warm, beautifully illustrated picture book about curiosity, pollinators, seasonal planting, and caring for the natural world. Perfect for young nature lovers, budding gardeners, classrooms, and families who enjoy gentle stories with meaningful environmental lessons.
