Vegetable Garden Florian, Douglas

Children are fascinated by watching plants grow, and in this colorful picture book even very young children can follow along with a family as they plant, tend, and harvest a vegetable garden. The sun shines brightly, summer rain falls, and vegetables grow and ripen. “ The watery, translucent watercolors . . . capture the vitality of all growing things, including the children.” --"The Horn Book"
