Description

Letter to a Dandelion—Earth Verse for Gardeners & Nature Lovers presents light-hearted rhyming poems in the form of mini-stories that take you on an amusing trek around an imaginary yard and garden through the seasons of the year. Experience the wonders of spring flowers in bloom, summer birds in flight, colorful autumn leaves, and the first snowflakes of winter, along with the challenges of mowing grass, raking leaves, pulling weeds (especially dandelions), and fending off hungry rabbits in the garden! This celebration of all four seasons provides a cornucopia of lyrical verse for exploring the joy of gardening and the pleasure of reading poetry aloud.
