Jack's Garden

by Henry Cole, Henry Cole (Illustrator)

Overview

Come to the garden that Jack planted!

You'll see seeds and seedlings, buds and leaves, birds and bugs and butterflies. And best of all, you'll watch the garden bloom.

"Building on a rhyme that will be familiar to many children, author-illustrator Cole creates an enticing guide to creating a garden. 'This is the garden that Jack planted...' The final illustration presents a satisfied-looking boy surrounded by a lush, bird-filled flower garden. A concluding page of gardening suggestions serves as a springboard to books with more specific guidelines." (Horn Book)
