A little boy plants a carrot seed. He's sure it will come up. Everyone around him is sure it won't. But every day the boy pulls weeds and sprinkles the ground with water. And then, one day, the boy's dream is fulfilled, just as he kew it would be. The wonderfully unshakable confidence of the very young is quietly captured in this small but pointed story - a favorite since it was first published in 1945.
