5.0 out of 5 stars A great, true story, wonderfully illustrated., May 9, 2000
By A Customer
This review is from: Grandpa's Garden (Paperback)
On Saturdays Grandpa and his granddaughter work side by side in the garden. Among the radishes and lettuce they share their deepest feelings and wishes. They harvest love and wisdom along with peas and turnips. Through the garden they learn of life and death, growth and change. The garden's lessons give the granddaughter strength when illness strikes Grandpa, and a special joy when he can return for their Saturday gardening together again. Wonderfully illustrated by the lovely artistry of Karlyn Holman, Shea Darian's Grandpa's Garden is based upon her own grandfather and his garden when she was a young girl, and is a true joy to read. Highly recommended for ages 4 to 10.

This review is from: Grandpa's Garden (Paperback)
A girl works with her Grandfather in his garden, learning about life & dreams, love & responsibility.

Shea Darian writes in her introduction that her Grandfather's garden was a place where she harvested the goodness of his humor & about life. That gardens are places where love & wisdom can grow alongside the vegetables, fruits, & flowers.

Karlyn Holman's illustrations are exuberant, colorfilled & rich in details & textures.

This is a keeper, to be read & re-read by all in the family.
