      Gr 4 Up-This book focuses on herbs, the botanical life cycle, and the beauty of the plants around us. After first introducing green witchery and green magic, Bennett (aka "The Green Witch of New York") shows readers how to identify certain plants and their herbal properties; provides examples of how to work with them; and shares recipes and rituals for medicinal, mindfulness, and nourishment purposes. Every page features beautiful artwork and delightful design. Each chapter centers around specific plants, such as roses, plantains, or white pine. The information provided pays homage to various Indigenous cultures and shares how their cultures have always respected nature. Even with the instructions of how to harvest the plants, the first priority discussed is the imperative need to respect nature and to respect the plants and flowers. The herbalist also advises how much plants can teach us about life and about ourselves. There is a calm undertone throughout, encouraging self-love and radical self-acceptance. The publisher includes a disclaimer on the copyright page that none of these practices should take the place of medical advice. The quaint, digital images stay on theme, with lots of greens and a soothing color palette. VERDICT This message of connection to nature is important for any age, but especially for middle graders. Purchase for most nonfiction shelves.-Jenna LaBollita
