Beautiful Books - The Gardener

Every Sunday, we will be featuring a book that received 5 stars at Beautiful Books for Children.

This week's book is:

The Gardener - by Sarah Stewart 

If you are like me, you love gardening almost as much as reading. And things I love are things I love to share with my children too. This book captures both, along with a story of love, hope, and brightening the world around you that will be as much (or more) of an inspiration to you as it is to your children.

Read the full book review including activities to do together after reading this book.

Rivka Kawano is mom to three boys and an avid reader who loves finding beautiful books to share with her kids. You can read all of her book reviews and suggestions at: BeautifulBooksForChildren.com
