About the Author
Brother and sister team Patrick and Emily Hruby collaborated on this charming little book. As kids growing up in a log cabin in the woods of Idaho, they were raised loving the abundant nature all around them. Emily often made up poetic stories for Patrick's imaginative drawings. As Los Angeles transplants, they each continue to pursue their respective passions for writing and illustrating. This is their first book together.
Reviews
Here’s a board book—a combo counting exercise, garden tour, and cumulative tale—that accomplishes a lot with a little. An apple-cheeked lad in overalls shows children what’s growing in his garden, from “1 onion, with many, many peels” and “2 tasty turnips, deep inside the ground” all the way up to “12 tall tulips, in a long yellow row.” After each element is introduced, it gets added to the repeated full-spread garden scene, adding up to a final crowded scene popping with bright colors, shapes, and sizes. The business of all those numbers adding up is balanced by Hruby’s clean, geometric artwork. Preschool-Kindergarten. --Ian Chipman
