Un album-documentaire tout mignon pour les petits et les grands. Les images sont magnifiques!

This is a brilliant book! I got it from my local library for my step daughters who are super interested in growing plants and where food comes from, I was pleasantly surprised when even I learnt some things too, especially about food from overseas and there were even somethings I'd never known in the pages of this book, so it was a good book for us all to learn from.

I really like the illustrations, they are very beautiful and inspiring to both children and adults, it's a darling book. The layout really helps explain to children step by step and some pages even have set pieces of information that make it really easy to learn about, following on to another topic quite easily; it all flows lovely.

Well done to the Author and the Illustrator, you've both done a great job, so much so we decided to buy this book as a reference for the kids to look over, time and time again.

Чудова книга, що розповідає дітям про природу та про життя. Ми разом з сином дізнавалися про те, як ростуть ягоди, фрукти, овочі, злаки. Читали про тропічні фрукти, какао, кукурудзу, спеції, про те, як вирощують рис та пшеницю. Книга написана просто та зрозуміло, але в ній багато цікавої інформації. Тому, на мою думку, підійде і дошкільнятам, і молодшим школярам. Чіткі та детальні ілюстрації допоможуть дітям ще краще уявити все те, про що йдеться в книзі.

My daughters and I sat and read this aloud, cover to cover, as part of our topic on autumn and harvest.

It’s a really good book! Full of interesting facts and wonderful illustrations; even I learned something.

Would definitely recommend this to parents.

Nii vahva!!!

Hea meeldetuletus, kui tähtsad on need väiksed (ja mõned mitte nii väiksed!) organismikesed!

Soovitan kevade hakul lugeda, siis hakkavad näpud kohe õigeaegselt sügelema.
