Wonders in the Garden
...a 3-book set of children’s books that include What Grows in the Garden?, What Lives in the Garden?, andWhat Do You Sense in the Garden? written by Anne Mottola, illustrated by Maria Mottola and published by the NYBG Press.
Each book explores the spirit of gardening by featuring children in a community garden setting either in school, their community, or their home neighborhood. According to the author and illustrator, “Our hope is that each book will instill a love of gardening in children who read them and inspire them to be caretakers of the environment.”
Each book is beautifully illustrated with full-color illustrations intended for children ages four to eight and older.
The set will make a great birthday or holiday gift for your future gardener or botanist!
