This is a great book to get kids interested in growing their own small gardens during the summer. The can make their garden and take care of it. It has many different projects to choose from. Some projects are short term projects that you will keep only a few days and others are longer projects to work on. I think this is a good project starter book for the summer.
Reading this book reminded me that when I was a kid I was curious about things growing. I would plant so many things in some weird spots to see if they would grow. Irony is that as I got older I lost interest yet today with all the modifications that occur in our food supply, I think about the fact that I wish I had continued to be intrigued with this. This book is a good place to get kids started.
