Praise for Diana’s White House Garden:
“A cheerful mix of gardening, history and patriotism.”–New York Times Book Review
“Carbone’s straightforward text features just the right details to engage children [and] is complemented by Hill’s mix of simple line drawings and muted colors that evoke the era’s austerity….An important piece of our history.”–Kirkus Reviews
“Playfully [depicts] Diana’s well-meaning mischief and her gardening work with Mrs. Roosevelt and the groundskeeper.”–Publishers Weekly
“Carbone’s depiction is lively and entertaining [while] Jen Hill’s line drawings with muted gray and pastels add to the austerity of the period.”–SLC
