 A child and a grandfather love to work in their garden. They till the ground, plant seeds, water, and weed. As they watch the plants grow, they take good care of them. They grow all kinds of vegetables, herbs and fruits. When it is time for the harvest, they pick the produce and fill up bushels and pails.

 This will surely be a favorite of young children. The text is fun and the illustrations are vibrant and colorful. Small children love to see food they can see grow in the garden, and they love to pick and eat the food. An awesome book for sure. Have fun reading this book and plan and plant a garden with your child.
