(3) 4-6 Originally published in Swedish, this story follows a group of children who help plant a no-dig garden in an abandoned yard near their apartment building. Alongside the narrative text are mixed-media illustrations and several boxes and labels explaining various aspects of planting; the resulting design is a busy one. Still, young readers will find practical tips to start their own gardens. Additional resources, including a glossary and further reading, are appended.
