Oats, peas, beans, and barley grow.
Do you or I or anyone know,
How oats, peas, beans, and barley grow?
The old nursery favorite is suggested in beautiful pictures which show what goes on under the earth as well as above, from seed time to freezer. Peas and beans are here, but oats and barley give way to corn, beets, broccoli, eggplant, and many other vegetables that a child can grow himself.
The quiet day-by-day joy of watching plants grow is expressed in fresh outdoor color and in words to inspire a young child to try for himself and to give even an older person a "toad's eye view" of how a garden grows.
