An intriguing book to learn about gardens, LEARNING ABOUT THE GARDEN WITH SLEEPING BEAUTY is a delightful combination of fairy tale and facts.

"I enjoyed weaving gardening in with a fairytale, and I would like to see the other books in this series. If it is meant for older juveniles, it would be a good start to learning about gardening." —Jordan Gray, Librarian

"This new release is a creative new format twist for nonfiction meets fiction books. The story is a light retelling of Sleeping Beauty with a heavy focus on her garden. The fun twist is that every page spread opens up to a large, nonfiction page that features the types of plants that were mentioned in the story and shares some interesting facts about them. Definitely an innovative and fun one!" —Book Nerd Mommy, IG
