This is much more than I was expected. RHS Get Growing isn't just a book teaching children about gardening. It is a full guide for how your family can begin growing plants together. It covers the needs of tons of plants as well as how to work in different spaces and terrain options. I love how simple and accessible it kept everything.

My children and I have really enjoyed this book and can't wait to use it more. This would make a great resource for school teachers to use in their classroom or for parents to use at home with their children!

A beautifully written gardening book, broken down into easy to understand terms. Get Growing is laid out perfectly into sections. The illustrations are cutesy and will appeal to all audiences. What I particularly liked were the Science projects to do with kids, as they are all feasible and will get kids of all ages interested in nature and Science. This book got me excited for gardening season, as I’ll be starting my seeds soon! Thank you to the publisher for the advance reader in exchange for my honest review.

Let me start with the cover, not my favorite and does not do justice to the book,
This book is AMAZING! So many tips of how to grow all kids of plans, herbs, veggies, inside, outside. I see us going back again and again to Implement these tips. The layout and pictures are great, very well explained. I would certainly recommend it to everyone!

I received an advanced reader copy of this book to read in exchange for an honest review via netgalley and the publishers.

This is a fantastic family book to share with your children. It has fantastic pictures and drawings that both children and adults alike will enjoy as well as a fantastic amount of information on all areas of gardening.
The book is broken down into sections which is useful and I enjoyed the science experiments within it too.
A delightful and informative book for any family library.

This was such a fun, colourful, and informative guide to plants and gardening great for kids and families, but also for everyone else who wants to be able to get something to grow. I love how it was divided into sections about different types of plants and how it was so detailed about all the different steps.

The experiments and projects are great for kids so that they can learn how best to grow these plants, vegetables, and flowers themselves and what is really happening. I also really loved the end of the book where it talks about what you can be doing in your garden every season of the year.

There are great parts of this book for everyone and I think it will be a great addition for any aspiring gardener.
