THUMBS UP FOR THIS GREEN THUMB BOOK!

A young girl plants a garden in the spring, waters it, and weeds it. Meanwhile, the wind blows seeds, the rain waters them, the sun shines down, and both gardens flourish. Bees buzz, butterflies flit, and the girl and her dog embrace the beauty of both worlds, domestic and natural. Melanie Hope Greenberg's joyful illustrations are a perfect complement to the text. An enchanting book to introduce children to both the joys of gardening and to the beauty of wildflowers, whether found in a meadow or in the crack of a sidewalk.
