Opening this beautiful, illustrated book is like going on an adventure through the world on our doorsteps. Each page presents a different garden or outdoor space for readers to explore, from herb gardens to ancient woodland, wildflower meadows and grassy lawns to vegetable gardens.
Readers can spot different plants, trees and birds in the full colour double page illustrations, each named and labelled with reader-friendly information. There are activities at the end of each chapter to help us grow, harvest and care for some of those plants in our own gardens.
By the end of the book, readers will understand so much not just about gardens, but about how the natural world works, how different species live and thrive alongside one another. A book to treasure and return to season by season, year by year.
