Outstanding picture book introducing young children to the workings of the Kew Gardens. Each page is packed with interesting facts and the illustrations perfectly support the written text, while also providing more visual information. Children can pore over these pictures and discover more. As an adult having just visited the Kew Gardens recently, I loved this book! It introduced me to all the work that the Gardens do that is ‘behind the scenes’, but vitally important to the preservation of so many ‘at risk’ species.
I would highly recommend this book to all public libraries and primary school libraries. It would make a perfect gift for any child who loves to explore the natural world.
