This book tells about Dr. Carver when he was a little boy.It teaches you about how he helped people learn to grow their gardens better. He was too sick and weak to work with his brother on the farm, so he helped with the family garden. He also had a secret garden that no one knew about in the woods. At his secret garden, he learned about plants and
how they grew. Then people started to call him the "Little Plant Doctor".
I liked this book because he helped people with their plants and grew up to be a famous botanist. I also liked the illustrations, especially the page where he is hugging the little tree he planted. I recommend this book if you want to learn about George Washington Carver as a little boy.
