Sarah enjoys working in the garden with her grandfather in this warmhearted picture-book from author/illustrator Judith Caseley, helping him to plant and water the various vegetables and flowers. Together they visit the local nursery and select plants, and together they work to make those plants thrive. Eventually, Sarah is invited over for a lunch made from the produce she and her Grandpa cultivated...

Grandpa's Garden Lunch is the ninth picture-book I have read from author/illustrator Judith Caseley, and like so many of her other titles, it offers an engaging 'slice of life' story in which family love and togetherness are paramount. The story is simple but heartwarming, and the accompanying artwork, done in watercolor and colored pencil, is just lovely. I liked the focus here on gardening, and on eating from one's own garden, as this is something I think many of us, especially in our modern, urbanized world, have lost. Recommended to anyone looking for picture-books featuring grandparents and/or gardening. ( )
