The Garden Gang is a series of books for children written by Jayne Fisher. They were published by Ladybird Books during the late 1970s and early 1980s as Series 413 and later re-issued as Series 793.[1] Fourteen story books were written, each containing two short stories about a group of characters who were anthropomorphic fruit and vegetables living an almost human life, selling over 8 million copies. Script error: No such module "Unsubst". In addition to the fourteen story books, there were also three other books - an annual and two colouring books. Fisher's books were not dissimilar to the popular Munch Bunch series.
At the age of 9 years, Jayne was the youngest author to ever write for Ladybird Books.[2][3] Her writing and illustrating has been an inspiration to others.[4][5]
