A Visit to the Greenhouse
1Juniper and Grandpa Teo step into the greenhouse. The glass walls let the sun shine in, so the air feels warm, like a summer day.
2Grandpa Teo points to a cactus. "Do not touch it. It is prickly," he says. Juniper pats a soft, fuzzy leaf instead. It feels like a kitten's ear.
3The dirt in the pots is damp. Juniper sniffs a white flower. It smells sweet, like honey. "This is my favorite place," she says.
