About This Book

The narrative follows two children, Davy and Prue, and their Chief Gardener through a year of planting, tending, and harvesting in a small garden, arranged month by month. Simple, practical instructions for sowing, care, and identification are combined with elementary botany explanations—plant parts, families, and life cycles—plus brief legends and imaginative stories that illuminate plant habits and relationships. Photographic illustrations support identification, and recurring themes emphasize observation, the interdependence of plants, animals, and people, and cultivating curiosity in young readers and teachers.
