Gardens for Children
Four Doors of the Year
A cold-country gardener's round
William Vincent Carleton
A cold-country gardener's round in four doors. In spring the ground unclenches and peas don't mind a chill; summer brings water, harvest and a hat; autumn is for saving seed, mulching crowns and raking leaves onto the beds; winter is for charts, clean tools and watching Dee at the stake. The ninth Gardens for Children book reminds young growers that a plot under snow is resting, not abandoned.
