This picture book features Molly and Emmett, the spunky girl and her cat who appear monthly in Ladybug magazine. The lively, likable pair decide to plant a garden with the seeds sent by Molly’s grandmother. An overly enthusiastic Emmett tries to help by opening all the packets at once, and the wind scatters them everywhere. “Never mind, Em. We’ll tell Grandma it’s our Surprise Garden!” The appealing illustrations portray the spirited personalities of the title characters and also provide lots of details about the hard work it takes to plant a garden.
