Grandma's Garden (Gifts for Grandchildren or Grandma) - Hardcover

by Toni Armier (Author), Lynn Horrabin (Illustrator)

Let me show you, little one--
A garden can be lots of fun!

It's springtime, and a young girl points to what's outside the kitchen window, wondering about Grandma's special spot. It's a garden filled with vegetables, flowers, fruits, and more! Grandma takes the little girl outside and shows her how she can help make all the plants grow. From pulling weeds to planting seeds and watering plants to keeping the bugs away, Grandma and granddaughter work together till harvest time. Then it's back to the kitchen for a wonderful dinner . . . and of course, dessert. Told from the point of view of the granddaughter, and featuring lush illustrations of lettuce, cabbage, peas, apricots, marigolds, cacti, tomatoes, peaches, and more, this simple journey from awe to understanding will become a treasured read-aloud for grandmothers and their grandchildren.
