Editorial Reviews
From School Library Journal
Grade 3-5?This "Anytime Anyplace Guide" tries to do too much, thereby sacrificing depth, clarity, and focus. In a zippy style, and with black-line drawings, the authors give sketchy directions for making a plant person with grass hair; tips for planting according to the position of the moon; the parts of a plant; experiments; recipes; and little bits of much, much more. Gardening is difficult enough with the best of directions, but leading readers to expect fast and easy results without much clarity is a disservice to hopeful beginners. Marc Brown's Your First Garden Book (Little, 1981) is a playful and much more helpful indoor-outdoor guide. Marjorie Waters's The Victory Garden Kids' Book (Globe Pequot, 1994) is a fine, clear outdoor gardening inspiration for slightly older readers.?Carolyn Jenks, First Parish Unitarian Church, Portland, ME

Review
"We give it two green thumbs up!" -- Schoolwide Enrichment Network
Plant a sidewalk-crack garden, grow a broom, and discover bug remedies and composting with the aid of a title which involves kids ages 4 and older and their families in the gardening process. The attention to urban as well as outdoor gardens makes for a lively and fun focus. -- Midwest Book Review
