In the tenth chapter of Seedfolks by Paul Fleischman it is told by Nora´s point of view. I can tell that she is a caring person because her job involves helping people every day, she is a nurse. She is taking care of a man in a wheelchair. One day she is is strolling him around and they found the garden. She decided to not only take care of people now, but of plants too.
I totally agree and love how you got start to the point!
