Just lovely ..

The women of my Family have been involved in horticulture from long before me, and have passed their love of flowers from Mother to Daughter through the generations. As I have Daughters, I have done same. This book is very much a portrait of our lives. All of us have enjoyed it very much, and let it in the open for others who come to our home to enjoy, too. A very lovely book that covers the joys of the seasons and Flowers, Mothers and Daughters. Gorgeous photos.

I loved this book. It not only contains beautiful pictures but the author's stories about her childhood and her mother's garden makes you feel you are chatting with a friend. I sent it to my daughter as I know she will enjoy it as much as I did.
True value is in its text.

My mom bought me this book when I had my own little girl. It sat on the coffee table as a showpiece, just because its a beautiful book. What I didn't realize at first was that it reads like a novel, too. Tovah Martin is apparently writing about her own childhood experiences with her mother in the garden, and she does so with eloquence. Her stories make me want to take notes of all the flowers and trees that shaped her earliest memories. She writes about them in such a way that I want them to become a part of my own life. I am now considering buying another Tovah Martin book.
Strikingly lovely!

Fully capturing a sense of childhood wide-eyed wonder, Ms. Martin shares with readers now and for years to come her passion for flowers and gardening. Complementing her fine text are photographs of strikingly lovely and beautiful women and girls - a beautiful tribute to mothers and daughters to parallel Ms. Martin's desire for readers to convey their love for blossoms to their own daughters. It's a beautiful book with a beautiful message.
