Illustrated by
Carol Schwartz.
Rhyming, cumulative text is reflected in vibrant, verdant illustrations as creatures (including a ladybug, hummingbird, and mantis) visit a lush flower garden; each verse ends with "near the surprise / in clever disguise / that hangs in my busy green garden." Kids will enjoy discovering the surprise (a cocoon) and searching for the chipmunk hiding in every spread. Information about each visitor is appended.
