His books are distinguished by their accessible art, humor, and informative content. Compared to drawing comics, gardening was more difficult for Alexis to figure out. His first garden faced an army of invading slugs, late spring snowstorms, and a voracious groundhog--but he managed to harvest enough veggies to share. He now cultivates a collection of pampered orchids, a few of which make a cameo in this book.
