Set in a world that has its own decided dull-greyish colour and where plants are no longer present, a young boy finds a magical book that changes his life and outlook forever as he sees flowers for the first time, filling him with immediate joy looking at these wondrous and colourful pictures. This awe inspired feeling is a bitter-sweet mix of emotions as he also feels sad because there are no flowers in the city he lives. However, while making all these many new discoveries, soon later he unearths a packet of flower seeds in a junk shop tucked away in the old part of town. Quickly, he learns how to grow and nurture his own very flower to life as if by magic transforming this strange world he only knows.
