From growing strawberries in galoshes to herbs in recycled tin cans, this easy-to-follow gardening book contains 15 simple projects for young gardeners. Directions are clear and written so they are easy to understand. I found when there was a string of  directions, it was unnatural to read from right-to-left, even though the steps were numbered. Bright, engaging illustrations showing a depiction of children with a variety of skin tones and accurate depictions of the steps described. Plants are common ones and accessory materials would be easy to find. A good choice for children interested in gardening.
