Everywhere, something we need is being grown in this busy book, which is attractive and useful in equal measure -- Julia Eccleshare Guardian The Global Garden is a super read. It really is a beautifully put together book: well-written and fact-filled as well as entertaining and engaging -- Anne Fine The Eden Project in Cornwall takes on new life in this glorious combination of lift-the-flap, turn-the-wheel, and pop-up book ... a beautiful presentation accompanies a bounty of surprises The Good Book Guide The creators have done their homework and, crucially, galvanised the material to make it entertaining for all ages -- Christina Hardyment Independent An ebulliently creative picture book -- Kate Kellaway Observer
