5.0 out of 5 stars
A great book for anyone, November 21, 2003
By A Customer
This review is from: The Garden of Happiness (Hardcover)
I am a teacher and I use this book in a lesson to my first graders. This book is multicultural without being obvious about it. The characters come from all different places which is evident in their speaking and what they grow in the garden. My students love the bright and colorful pictures. This book gives great ideas about what to grow in a garden and shares many different ideas about what a garden is.

how gardeners of various sexes ages and cultural harmonize, September 4, 1999
By A Customer
This review is from: The Garden of Happiness (Hardcover)
A wonderful story for all ages. Especially for gardeners. "Growing" in an urban setting is the theme. The reader becomes engaged not only in the growing things but also how people, who were at first unrelated, grow and their lives become intertwined. Thus the transformation of an entire community!
