I like the story “Three Roses” by Garth Nix‚ for the reason I feel that it has a great meaning to it. The gardener planting flowers in memory of what reminds him of his wife‚ to not forget what he loved about his wife was very touching to me. For the gardener to keep letting the king come back to take each flower‚ that was symbolic to the gardener‚ away back to his palace was strange.
