Six friends work together to grow potatoes, carrots, beans, and other crops in their garden. The deep color photos of the children at work are evocative (if not instructive), and while the instructions are too vague to act as a gardening guide (the hand-and-foot layout measurements for the rows are confusing), the first-person descriptions of the work will appeal to budding gardeners. A recipe is included.
