Linda Glaser

This is a perfect book to introduce children to composting and its benefits to our gardens and environment!

If you want to grow the best garden you can, one of the best ways is to actually use your garbage. In this book the family has a nice garden and grows many different kinds of plants, but in ...

Great Story for a Community or Garden Unit

This is a wonderful story about a little girl who works with her neighbors to turn a vacant lot into a garden. Over the course of the story the grumpy old man changes because of the garden. It's a great story, high readability for middle to end third grade students on grade level.

Compost Stew2 reviews
Mary McKenna Siddals
Tricycle Press, 2010
A book sure to inspire even the youngest reader to create their own stew!
+ informative and fun
What a unique an engaging book! The illustrations are fascinating and I really loved the rhymes. It's not often that an alphabet book flows along so seamlessly, especially one that tackles such a unique subject. This works well as a read aloud and I think would be even better with one on one ...

Wonderful gardening book
+ Will inspire children to want to garden
My son has loved this book since he was 1 year old and is now 2. Although the story is targetted at an older child, he loves the pictures and the process of gardening, it also goes through the need for sunshine and rain for the garden to grow. In particular he loves to spot the mouse, worm, bird, ...

Pick, Pull, Snap!: Where Once a Flower Bloomed 1 review
Lola M. Schaefer
Greenwillow Books, 2003
A "Teaching" book that is fun to read!
We checked this out of the library for my almost-5-year old daughter, and she has really enjoyed it. On each page, we'd read a brief and poetic description of what season it was and what the plant and its flowers looked like, and how the flowers were pollinated. Then, half of the page would fold ...
