About This Book

Siblings accompany their father on a sequence of garden outings that teach them about seasons, soil, seed planting, and plant growth. Episodes move from planning and digging to planting beans, radishes, potatoes, corn and tomatoes, noting details such as corn silk and early tomatoes, running a children's market, planting by a friend, growing white celery, and harvesting for a pumpkin pie. The book blends gentle narrative, practical gardening steps, and nature lore aimed at children, showing how care and observation turn seeds into food and small adventures into learning about the outdoors.

The author knows these subjects from a practical standpoint. Each book is printed from new plates on a good quality of paper and bound in cloth. Each book wrapped in a jacket printed in colors.
