From The
Reading
Granny
I
T’S STILL COLD in Atlanta where my granddaughter lives, but already she is
getting ready to help her daddy with the spring gardening. For all your little
helpers, I would like to recommend these books to read in preparation for fun in
the garden.
Tops and Bottoms
by Janet Stevens
This Caldecott honor book is a
delightful tale of the wily rabbit
who outsmarts the lazy bear by
knowing which vegetables form
on the top of the soil and which
ones we harvest from under, as in
lettuce vs. carrots. The story also
shows the steps in gardening:
planting, weeding, watering, and
reaping the results of one’s hard
work.
Growing Vegetable Soup
by Lois Ehlert
Growing Vegetable Soup explains this
process, too. This time, the illustrations
are colorful block-like prints for the very
young child, and here the whole garden-
ing process is taken one step further as
the vegetables become food for us.
The Gardener
by Sarah Stewart,
Illustrated by David Small
In The Gardener we have another Caldecott honor
book. A little girl with a passion for plants of all
kinds changes the mental outlook of those around
her by sowing flowers as a feast for the soul. This
very special story told in the form of letters will
leave the reader with a warm glow that will bring
spring to one’s heart, even in the depths of winter.
