This seems to be an excellent book for children to learn about taking care of the environment. I love that it portrays information that is entertaining and contains several learning resources that will help children. I will give the book a try.

Children's books are always as impactful as captivating. I remember picking books and turning pages letting the illustrations and words immerse me in my own world. Tending to a garden as a plot is engaging and the characters seem like they would be remembered by a child in the long run. This review instills a curiosity to check out what it might have to offer. Congratulations to the author on BOTD.

I enjoyed reading the review. The sample showed an engaging story with a likeable main character. The drawings are a great addition to the written story.

I love the artwork on the cover. It looks so magical. What a charming tale. Our home doesn't have garden or backyard. Must be fun to explore nature and discover new things. Captivating story with a great message is a perfect pick for parents and educators alike. Thank you for sharing your insightful review.

This book will be exceptional for all children. It is both for entertainment and as a learning resource. Parents should understand that it is never too early to teach their kids how to care for the environment.
- I agree. Especially in the kids' formative years they absorb a lot quite fast and easily, rather than trying to get them to do it when they are older and less interested.

One aspect I absolutely loved was the artistic side of the book. In the beginning, when Adele first discovers the garden in its neglected state, the illustrations are mostly black and white. But as she starts caring for the garden, the images gradually come to life, becoming more vibrant and colorful with each page. This visual transformation beautifully mirrors the restoration of the garden, adding an extra layer of meaning to the story. I found this progression to be a delightful and thoughtful artistic touch.
