Dad tells Muriel a secret: She is like the pit of an avocado, he explains, small and full of magic. Together they put an avocado seed in a glass of water by the window and watch as both Muriel and her avocado plant grow, take root, and eventually bring new life.

Muriel está de mal humor: ayer celebró su cumpleaños bajo el viejo árbol de aguacate, pero hoy está más alta-¡ni un poquito! Papá le cuenta a Muriel un secreto: Ella es como una semilla de aguacate, chiquita pero llena de magia. Juntos, colocan en la ventana una semilla de aguacate en un vaso de agua y observan cómo tanto Muriel como su planta de aguacate crecen, echan raíces y finalmente engendran nueva vida. Los aguacates están en todos partes y se recogen directamente del árbol en el país natal de Taltal Levi, Israel, así como por toda América Latina. En su tercer libro, Taltal Levi utiliza colores cálidos para contar una historia personal pero universal sobre la magia del crecimiento. ¡Incluye instrucciones para cultivar tu propio árbol de aguacate!
