Reviews/Quotes

The Horn Book 03/06/2013 The Horn Book Like these children and adults working in harmony with the earth’s resources, Ancona’s words and visuals exist in a beautiful balance. -------- School Library Journal 12/05/2012 School Library Journal This fun and inspiring season-by-season description of a school gardening project could encourage others to repeat this extraordinary experience. -------- Booklist 01/31/2013 Booklist The clearly written text works seamlessly with the two kinds of color illustrations: Ancona’s many effective photos record the garden experience over the course of the growing season, while the children’s drawings (in crayon or marker) offer a fresh counterpoint to his engaging photos. An inviting introduction to school gardens. -------- Library Media Connection 01/17/2013 Library Media Connection With the growing interest in school gardens, this is a timely book. Listed resources, both books and websites, give more information. The full-color photographs are well-done, and illustrations drawn by students add further interest and visual appeal. -------- Publishers Weekly 11/29/2012 Publishers Weekly The documentary-style narrative and uplifting photos put the joy of kinship, outdoor work, and growing food within reach of readers. --------
