Molly and Emmett's Surprise Garden

(4) K-3 When Molly gets a package of seeds in the mail from Grandma, she and Emmett, her cat, plan out a garden. As they're planting the seeds, a gust of wind scatters them in all directions--but they come up anyway in a "surprise garden." The story is slight but may inspire young gardeners. Watercolors with dialogue bubbles illustrate the book; suggested garden activities are appended.
