Up, down, and around / Katherine Ayres ; illustrated by Nadine Bernard Westcott.

Ayres, Katherine. (Author). Westcott, Nadine Bernard, (illustrator.).

Summary:

A garden produces a variety of edible plants, such as corn that grows up, onions that grow down, and tomato vines that twine all around. Peppers grow up. Potatoes grow down. Pumpkins vine around and around. From seeds dropping into soil to corn bursting from its stalks, from children chasing butterflies to ants burrowing underground, everything in this vibrant picture book pulses with life -- in all directions! Sprightly illustrations set the mood for a rhythmic text that follows nature's course to a final feast of backyard bounty.
