 Hosted By: Love, Mrs. Mommy

The Winner Will Receive:

The brand-new hardcover book, The Soil in Jackie's Garden

PLUS

A Root Viewer Activity Kit
(offering side cut views of what's happening beneath the surface of the soil, just like the book!) 

Perfect for National Learn About Composting Day, The Soil in Jackie’s Garden introduces budding gardeners to the magic happening in their very own backyard with beautiful visuals that open vertically to showcase the secrets beneath the surface of the soil. Follow Jackie and her diverse group of friends as they meet pollinators, measure progress, and patiently wait for their sweet snack to grow. But it doesn't stop there — the soil is packed with critters creating compost for next season's seeds!

Written in the cumulative style of “The House that Jack Built,” the catchy alliterations and engaging illustrations are interwoven with scientific facts that teach young readers about the life cycle of a plant, the natural processes that create new soil, and the importance of composting for a sustainable garden.
