Summary "A Little Garden Calendar for Boys and Girls" by Albert Bigelow Paine is a children’s educational book written in the early 20th century. The book focuses on gardening as a delightful and engaging activity for young readers, as it narrates the experiences of a little boy named Davy and a little girl named Prue along with their Chief Gardener, who guides them in cultivating a window garden throughout the seasons. The opening of the book introduces Davy and Prue as they express their longing for warmth and the joy of a garden, despite the winter snow. The Chief Gardener encourages their passion for gardening, explaining that they can start a garden in their window, leading to their excitement over choosing seeds and planting. As they fill pots with soil, observe the seeds, and tend to their plants, the story emphasizes the connection between nature and learning, blending simple botany with playful narratives to capture young imaginations. The stage is set for a year-long journey through the garden, filled with wonder, discovery, and valuable lessons about plant life and care. (This is an automatically generated summary.)
