What is Moving Molly about?

Molly has always dreamed of having a proper garden to play in. When her family moves from their busy city street to a new house in the country, she is excited at first—but soon misses the familiar passers-by and sounds of home. Just when Molly begins to feel lonely, she discovers an adventurous garden next door and meets new friends. With plants to care for, secret places to explore and plenty of imagination, Molly slowly begins to feel at home.
