Gardening Books For Young Children

I love reading gardening books to my boys. I gathered a list of eight of my favorites here. Many of these can be found through the local library system here in Pittsburgh. And let me know if I am missing any of your favorites - I am always looking for more!

1. The Vegetables We Eat by Gail Gibbons

2. The Gardener by Sarah Stewart

3. Grow! Raise! Catch! How We Get Our Food by Shelly Rotner

4. How do Flowers Grow? Published by Usborne

5. The Flower’s Festival by Elsa Beskow. Elsa Beskow wrote so many delightful garden/nature related stories for children.
