I bought this little book for my six year old neighbour and she was delighted. She had never shown any great interest in growing plants before this. It was colourful and with interesting facts that were easy to read. The lay out was great and really held her interest. There were packets of seeds included and she is having great fun growing these. Her Dad grows vegetables and now she is enthusiastic about helping him in the garden. The book is getting grubbier by the day but is well used and that is indeed a success
