The Gardener's Apprentice

A Folktale and Flower Journal
adapted by Eric Metaxas, illustrated by Rodica Prato

In this version of a traditional Romanian folktale, a young boy rides from his home on a magical horse and cannot find his way back. He becomes a gardener’s apprentice, and with the help of his horse, he overcomes many dangers and wins the hand of the Emperor’s daughter. This enchanting retelling of the story is accompanied by a flower list from the apprentice’s garden, a flower journal for your child to keep a record of the plants in his or her garden, and a package of hollyhock seeds.
