Watch Me Grow! by Deborah Hodge-ADVISABLE

Hodge, Deborah,  Watch Me Grow!: A Down-To-Earth Look at Growing Food in the City. Kids Can Press, 2011. PICTURE BOOK

 A city is a great place to grow food. The rooftops, front yards, and backyards. For this reason, people young and old are growing gardens and enjoying the fruits of their labor. This book takes a look at these people and the food they grow.

The text is simple to read. The photos are fun to look at and add a lot to the text. Those who enjoy non-fiction, gardening, or books about food will enjoy reading this book or having this book read to them. EL (K-3). ADVISABLE. Reviewer: Kira M, Youth Services Librarian, WHI Public Library.
