Mr. and Mrs. Golldooney live with their pet dog in a house complete with a magnificent garden. The garden, boasting beautiful flowers and countless vegetables, also serves as a playground for numerous visitors. Apart from the insects and birds who frequent the scene, some fairies often come calling. However, with an award ceremony approaching soon, the inhabitants are concerned. Will the Golldooneys win the prize for the best garden? Will they restrict entry to some of the visitors, like the worms? What will happen in the food contest? Find out in The Golldooney’s Garden, a picture book by Chanmattee Lynnie Bachoo.

I loved how Bachoo made the garden come alive in all its glory. The vivid descriptions portray the lush garden with a vibrant summer look. The whimsical prose perfectly resembles the ramblings of an excited child keen to tell their story. With one thought overlapping another, the unconventional writing style creates a magical tapestry. The eye-catching illustrations on each page further add to the charm. The sheer number of visitors, including bumble bees, ladybugs, butterflies, spiders, and birds, is perfect for creating a preliminary concept of biodiversity in a young audience. Parents could teach youngsters the significant roles these pollinators play, also explaining why worms are vital to keeping soil fertile. The lists of vegetables will help children learn to identify each item while also becoming aware of their nutritional values. The slight touch of the supernatural will keep young readers engaged. I recommend The Golldooney’s Garden to readers aged 2-5 years.
