    A charming picture book about two worms who fall in love and decide to get married, celebrating their relationship with friends from the garden. The story features LGBTQ+ representation through its gender-neutral main characters, allowing readers to interpret the worms' identities freely while normalizing same-sex relationships.

The book promotes themes of love, acceptance, inclusion, and the importance of celebrating all types of families.
