Please help me find this (kids) book!

[IButtleSir]

It's a kids' chapter book (8-12 market).

The front cover shows a city (possibly London?) overrun with plants. This is essentially the plot of the book- plants have recently started growing out of control and taking over cities.

I'm almost certain it has a female author.

I think it's a fairly recent book- published within the last couple of years.

Thank you in advance!

The Thames and Tide Club?

Ignore me! It’s not that at all! I was just thinking of the front cover because mine loved it and then realised that’s not what it’s about 🤦‍♀️

Greenwild?

Neither of those, sadly 😕

The boy in the tower by Polly Ho-Yen

The Bongleweed by Helen Cresswell?

Not those, either, I'm afraid.

Do you remember any more about the plot?

I only read the blurb, but I think it was about a young girl who was living in London and was trying to find out why the plants had started growing so dramatically. I'm almost certain the front cover showed London landmarks overgrown with plants.

Chatgpt says 'Memory seed' or 'an episode of sparrows'

ChatGPT has failed us!

Gardens in the sky?
Forgotten city?
When plants took over our planet?
The world without us?

The day of the triffids? Although I think that's actually about killer plants

Where the World Turns Wild by Nicola Penfold?
The Secret Wild by Alex Evelyn?

The overstory?

city of secret rivers?

I was going to day The Day of the Triffids too!

I doubt it's the day of the triffids - that was aimed at adults; had a male author and waa published more than 70 years ago!
Doesn't fit the criteria in the op.

I think it might be the secret wild - you need to know how to work with ChatGPT to get to the answers you want!

@Pinkypup I LOVE YOU! That is it! Thank you so much!

Well done @MyFlightWasAwfulThanksForAsking, too!

More than welcome!
