Young Gai is definitely annoyed in Sandy Baker's latest book, Gai's Go-Away-Come-Back Garden, when his parents go away and leave him with a babysitter. Gina deftly handles the situation by showing Gai the natural rhythms of a garden with the comings and goings of snails, lightning bugs, butterflies, and perennial flowers. Sandy gently blends gardening information into this fun and educational book that students, parents and teachers will enjoy.
