AlbakiReads Editorial

A garden as a way to think about teaching

Mrs. Spitzer’s knowledge of gardens and children shapes a parallel between tending plants and helping young people grow. The book connects that comparison to the work teachers do over the years, with Tricia Tusa’s illustrations accompanying Edith Pattou’s story. Its garden imagery gives the subject of education a concrete frame, linking care, attention, and children’s development.

Good fit for readers who enjoy

  • Children ages 4–8 exploring school and the role of teachers
  • Families seeking a picture book about children’s growth and care
  • Those looking for a book to mark appreciation for a teacher

Book overview

A beautiful, moving story and the perfect teacher appreciation gift.

Mrs. Spitzer is a wise teacher who knows many things. She knows about gardens. She knows about children. She knows how similar they are, and how both will flourish if tended lovingly.

There are many remarkable teachers like Mrs. Spitzer in the world, and Edith Pattou's simple, moving story along with Tricia Tusa's inspired, whimsical illustrations celebrate all they do, year after year, to help our children grow and blossom.
