In the style of Azarian's A Farmer's Alphabet, bold full-page woodcuts with colorful watercolor washes fill the pages of this alphabet book about gardening. Many aspects of gardening are included, from Japanese gardening to composting and sowing seeds. Children and adults both will enjoy the book's humor and subtlety. A brief introduction by the author-illustrator gives some insight into her love for gardens.
