About the Book
There is a new criminal monster on the scene, the Climate Change. He's ugly, fat, full of dust and fumes. He drinks coral's color and absorbs the ozone layer. He's destroying the environment everywhere: Asia, the Arctic, Africa, Europe, America…
Only a young pretty girl known as The Grumpy Gardener and her peculiar squire aka Sanchopanza, the Self-Satisfied Squirrel, can defeat the most powerful monster of all times in order to save nature and the life of Planet Earth.
Governments have turned out to be irresolute. What is the mysterious and special weapon that our two heroes have, which can destroy the troll? How are they going to survive this evil monster? Why is the Gardener called Grumpy?
The Grumpy Gardener and the Self-Satisfied Squirrel will travel around the World, will meet the most generous and welcoming friends and will go through an exciting adventure…

About the Author
Anna Genover-Mas is a Catalan journalist and writer from Girona, now living in Barcelona. As a child, she dreamed of becoming a navigator, an archaeologist, a hydroplane pilot, and even to pick up a Hollywood's Oscar… She graduated in Journalism and became a free-lance journalist for the Spanish TV.
Years later, she did cinema studies at NYU and at UCLA, where she realized that she could be everything she dreamed of, thanks to the scripts that filled her imagination: a spy in 'Dog Drag', an oysters' breeder in 'Misty Spur', a fortunate spectator of the Second Spanish Republic's birth in Madame Duval', and the Spanish postwar in 'Golden Route'…
One day she bumped into children's literature, which turned Anna into a total adventurous writer. Nowadays she travels for free and lives all sorts of adventures every day. The Grumpy Gardener is the first book she publishes and translates into English. She is now preparing a new collection of adventure books: the first two volumes are 'The Magical Spout' and 'The Treasure of Pakamotu'.
