Don’t know why I picked this up at the library, I’m 17, I guess this mean it’s really visually appealing so a baby must enjoy it. Not a fan of the limited colour palette but I think Montessori likes that. The minimal colours would be less of an issue for me if they were nature themed colours since it is a garden themed book.

This wordless board book features striking black, white, and red illustrations of garden-related concepts. This would be good for babies and very young toddlers.

Great high contrast images, but the fact that there are no words make it hard to use as a bonding experience with baby.

Readers are introduced to animals and objects one would find in a garden using high contrast colors (black, white, and red).

Loved the sharp figures, loved the coloring and the simpleness of the book. A great book to start reading.
