Gardening With Peter Rabbit

from the back cover:

There are lots of gardens and gardners in the stories of Peter Rabbit and his friends. Peter was very fond of gardens, particularly the vegetable section, and when he grew up he even became a market gardner himself.

This book is packed with excting projects inspried from Beatrix Potter's Country stories. It is divided into four parts according to the seasons and there are instructions for simple ideas like growing carrot ferns or making a cress hedgehog, as well as more substantial projects such as indoor herbs, a miniature water garden and a bottle garden.

As Timmy Willie the country mouse knew, you can have great fun seeing your garden produce beautiful flowers to look at or delicious things to eat.
