Sophie lives in the city, and her vegetables come from the supermarket. Then she goes to visit her grandparents in the countryside helping them garden through the different seasons. Sophie learns about mulching onions, eating flowers, weeding, bees, making salad, catching beetles, digging, earthing up, picking and composting. This is a wonderful book for children to learn about vegetable gardening through Sophie's eager and questioning eyes. Gerda Muller's characterful illustrations accurately depict the garden and its plants through spring, summer, autumn and winter.
