Book Nook - Margot and the Magic Plant

 Jane Rhodes enchants her young readers with her story of little Margot and the seeds she plants.

Showcasing the curiosity of children in a story that details the development of the unknown seeds and the mischievous visitors to the garden keen to thwart their growth, the author’s addition of a space for children to add a photo of their own tomato growing accomplishments is an unexpected and considered addition.

Inspired by her experiences as a youth worker and time spent working with children in the garden, this gentle, humorous and educational book appeals to parents and grandparents as much as the audience for which it is intended.  And its focus on nature and enjoying the great outdoors has ensured its popularity with those in early years education.

 

Synopsis:

Follow Margot's exciting new plant adventure. Watch as the mystery seeds grow and change along the way. Each day there is something new, but Margot doesn't quite know what she is growing until the end of the story. By this time, the cheeky bird has his eye on the prize. Complete the story with a photograph of your very own plant creation.
