Overview

In Vegetables, early fluent readers learn how to plant and care for a vegetable garden. Vibrant, full-color photos and carefully leveled text will engage young readers as they learn about how to grow their own fresh vegetables.

An infographic illustrates the features of a raised garden bed, and an activity offers kids an opportunity to extend discovery. Children can learn more about vegetable gardening using our safe search engine that provides relevant, age-appropriate websites. Vegetables also features reading tips for teachers and parents, a table of contents, a glossary, and an index.

Vegetables is part of Jump!'s Way to Grow! Gardening series.

Editorial Reviews

School Library Journal

11/01/2015
Gr 1–3—Beautiful photos and the use of appropriate vocabulary take precedence over the how-to in this cheerful series that gives developing readers early exposure to features of informational text. Every book includes sidebars, highlighted terms, diagram overlays, and one activity, which introduces kids to instructional writing as they set up soil experiments or make a plant pot. Images depict kids working together, with family members, or by themselves as they water, dig, pick, plant, and prune. Full-bleed stock photos explode with color and texture, and the portrayed youngsters are happy and diverse. VERDICT Mouthwatering choices for early readers.
