The whimsical, fairytale-like flower names such as spiderwort, wolfbane, and beardtongue used throughout the book, the lyrical text, and the captivating collage illustrations will pique children's interest in gardens/gardening. The additional fun of searching for hidden pictures makes this a great book to read together. Laurei Parker's Garden Alphabet is sure to inspire children to want to visit real garden and/or create a little beauty in their own backyards!
