Synopsis

Books That Grow With Your Children!
In book #2, “Cranky Franky,” Sinclair and his friend Ronnie Raven have to get sneaky and trick a farmer who grows dandelions better than vegetables! Learning Concepts: Indicator Plants, Compaction, Mulch and Compost Tea, Tilling and Soil Structure and Recipes for Critter Tea.
SERIES: Children will join Sinclair and his fashion-forward, colourful-hat-hoarding sidekick Ronnie Raven on a teaching adventure meant to “Convert the Dirt.” Each book in this organic gardening series will introduce young learners to key concepts about the micro-biome, composting, no-till gardening, companion planting, indicator plants and the difference between soil and dirt, to name a few.

“Sinclair the Water Bear Early Learning Series" is a fun and engaging introductory exploration of Organic Gardening. One all-encompassing book can overwhelm young learners and often gets lost on a shelf. A series becomes cherished. With that in mind, the author chose a series format to make it easier for your child to learn the concepts over time. Receiving new books creates excitement, ensures retention and keeps your child engaged longer. The information will stick, and your young learner will enjoy building a gardening book library they will continually refer to over time; as entertainment, study and reference!
If your children range in age, comprehension abilities and reading levels, this series is a must-have for your family! The 'story' is written in fast-paced verse, which ensures retention. The second half of each book is designed for youth aged 7 to 12 and includes further learning and activities. Some books even include DIY science experiments that parents may enjoy as well! This series is a fun addition to any classroom, school or home library. Teachers and parents might learn some things that surprise them too!

Sinclair can survive in almost any environment. He can even speak to people! But can he survive teaching growers the benefits of breaking old habits and learning new, sustainable ones that support the Soil Food Web and Organic Horticulture?
