After a lifetime spent tunnelling through the hidden roots of backyard gardens, Wally engagingly teaches kids about the amazing and often magical world of plants. He describes the different types of plants according to how new ones are created; explains why plants need water and sunlight to thrive; differentiates between herbs and weeds; and provides information on unusual species, such as cacti, plants that are mobile, and those that consume insects. Finally, our aproned host invites kids to get started on gardening, advising which basic gardening tasks can be accomplished in each of the four seasons and what tools young gardeners will need for the job. Combining thorough, informational text with hundreds of colour illustrations and diagrams, this colourful book gives kids aged 8 to 12 years of age a strong introduction to the world of the green and leafy. Young readers should not only learn to identify a myriad of plants but should also discover the miracle of nature happening in their own backyards.
