ReviewsAn adorable hard backed book. Nuneaton Evening Telegraph & Coventry Telegraph With a spare, rhythmic text, characterful pictures, and a few modest flips, this turns into something sophisticated and spectacular. The Independent The perfect book for explaining the life cycle of a plant ... just the thing to encourage the three to four-year-old gardener. Irish Examiner You never know, this might kindle enthusiasm for tackling the bindweed in later life, or your small sproglet becoming the next Alan Titchmarsh. Newbury Weekly News
