Summary: basic, but wonderful
Comment: I checked this book out of the library and could have kept it for 4 weeks at a time -- but I liked it so much, I decided to order it. The writing is very good, and it's so full of art and pictures, it's really fun to read. I already have truckloads of dense, verbose garden books (which I seldom actually read!) but this one is more fun than the rest. It doesn't replace the voluminous garden library we all want to have, but it is definitely worth its place on the shelf!

Summary: I think she's done it!
Comment: Rita Buchanan seems to have achieved her goal of inspiring me to "dig up part of your yard and plant a garden there." As a librarian, I purchased the book for my library. When it arrived, I took it home, and now I'm spending my a bit of my meager income to order a copy for myself. Experienced gardeners probably will find this too basic for their needs, but those of us who are timid but aspiring may find just the help we need. This is a very attractive book, with numerous color illustrations and photographs, and the text is both encouraging and stimulating. The try-it-you'll-like-it philosophy pervades and we are encouraged to take a deep breath, start small, but START and do SOMETHING!
