Jacket Notes:

I love to go into the garden.

I sit quietly.

I see flowers and plants.

It makes me feel peaceful.

If I am very still,

I see birds, insects,

and creatures I had

not noticed before.

I can even hear them!

"Nibble, crunch, chomp."

"Chew, bite, slurp,"

"swallow, gulp."

They are all hungry! Get ready to look and listen.

Get ready fbr fun in the quiet garden.

You can make your own quiet garden, too!
