Peggy Goes Gardening

Author: Tonka Yuzu

This charming picture book introduces us to Peggy, who is going to do some gardening with her mum. Peggy is very keen to help with all the tasks in the garden and curious to explore. As she runs here and there with her refrain of ‘I can do it!’, things might not always go quite as they should, but sometimes the result is not so bad, such as the big puddle she can play in after she’s accidentally spilled some water. What fun! After Peggy’s curiosity leads her to taste an unripe tomato, Mum suggests that she too lies back and enjoys the sun, just like the fruit and flowers in the garden.

Yuzu’s simple, but beautiful illustrations perfectly reflect determined and happy little Peggy, exploring the simple everyday things in life. A heart-warming tale to share with younger readers.
