In My Garden

Kate Mayes, Tamsin Ainslie (illus.)

In our gardens are where we belong.

Planting, watching, growing, dreaming.

In our gardens something out of nothing comes.

Join children from around the world as they share their gardens, from blossoming flowers in Japan to the waterside of Malawi, the frozen landscape of Iceland to the bush tracks of Australia. These are the places they love and the places they belong. With uplifting lyrical words and stunning detailed pictures from bestselling duo, Kate Mayes and Tamsin Ainslie.

Review

Starting with the lively endpapers, we join different children around the world in their gardens.

Mostly, these gardens comprise indigenous plants of their country, but sometimes it is the wildlife that inhabit the environment that is important, or in the case of a boy living in a war zone, it is a single pinecone that is a memory of a cherished garden.

In My Garden shares a beautiful appreciation of nature, and the illustrations have a gentle serenity that highlight the contemplative attributes of creating a personal sanctuary. For ages 3+.
