See Marcus Grow

By: Bridgewater, Marcus

Book Overview

Marcus Bridgewater, also known as the social media sensation Garden Marcus, shows kids the lessons he learned in his grandma's garden when he was growing up.

Grandma's favorite place is her garden. It seems like she could stay there forever Marcus wants to know why--so they set about exploring it together. From shells protecting seeds (like Marcus's helmet protects his head ) to a small seed eventually growing into something big (also just like Marcus ), there are so many amazing connections to be made in this wonderful place. Day after day, Marcus delights in realizing how much he has in common with the plants--he drinks water every day, too, and he gets haircuts just like the plants get pruned. As his grandma says, there's a whole world to explore in a garden, and Marcus likes thinking about it as a playground for all the snails, birds, bugs, and worms. And one of its many beauties is the bounty they are rewarded with after all the love and care they pour into it

Sweet Book

I ordered See Marcus Grow after hearing the author interviewed on NPR. It’s a sweet book with lovely artwork and an underlying age-appropriate message about man’s connection to nature. I’ll add this to my list of books I like to give as gifts to newborns.
