My First Book of Growing Food

My First Book of Growing Food, part of the earth-friendly Terra Babies at Home series, introduces babies and toddlers to the advantages of cultivating food and forming a relationship to the natural environment. This board book, which is crafted from FSC materials and nontoxic inks in a manner that is recyclable, is a perfect combination of Åsa Gilland's captivating art (The Perfect Shelter) and simple, idiosyncratic language that introduces the fundamentals of ecology in a friendly, uncomplicated fashion.

Tots will learn that lettuce and tomatoes are easy to grow; herbs like rosemary, mint, and cilantro grow happily next to a bright window; and yes, tots can grow their own strawberries.
