The Little Gardener Hardcover – August 11, 2015

Bought this for my preschooler for Easter since we’ve been working in our own garden lately. The illustrations are lovely and detailed. He is going to be so excited to see that it is a boy gardener. Lovely story and message. The story itself is a bit short, but the book is still amazing.

Cute story about a miniature Gardner that works on his garden day and night but can’t tame it until one day some kids get inspired when they see his garden and decide to take care if it too. They tend tend to the weeds and plant seeds. While he’s asleep they work hard to fix it up and when he wakes up his garden is more beautiful and plentiful than it’s ever been.The illustration is awesome and every spread is full of detail from edge to edge. Full bleed illustration. There’s a lot to see.

Beautiful illustrations and lovely story. Bought it for my neighbor who has a container garden inside because it's so cold here. Seems that seeing gardening in a kid's book might make it more of an normal, every day expectation for everyone. I mean if a kid reads it and sees a plant or two around, there will be much less of a learning curve to having their own garden later in life. Even if it's a pot of basil... and that means there's more local food and that's one tiny step forward.

Bought this book for my little girl foe Christmas after finding a list of books that inspire whimsy. It’s absolutely charming! The illustrations are beautiful, and the wording and overall point of the story are so sweet. Highly recommend! Honestly, I read this one to myself sometimes!

This is a gorgeously illustrated book that reinforces the value of working hard and persisting even when things don't go your way. I can't wait to talk more about these virtues with my little one as she gets older and I'm happy to have such a wonderful story as an example!

Sweet book with absolutely beautiful illustrations. Cannot wait to read it to my little one!

A very endearing story of a little gardener who has faith and a good work ethic which helps him to cultivate a lovely garden it's a sweet book for little ones with great illustrations!

This is a gorgeous story that teaches work ethic, perseverance and hope. All of the values you want your kiddo to learn early and often. I just love it. The illustrations are beautiful too.
