    Great seller, answered my questions with quick and cordial communication, Shipped multiple items together which were packaged well. All items were clean and sealed separately, which is great when giving one as a gift and purchasing one item for yourself. Pictures were accurate to the item and the price was very reasonable. Definitely recommend purchasing from this seller.

  • Sharon Lovejoy: A TREASURE!!

    I absolutely adore this book as well as Lovejoy’s other gardening related books. I learn more from this author than I do from other gardening books. She encourages using “found items” instead of always buying new planters and other items. So glad I found this book. I can now give my daughter’s copy back!

  • Charming Gardening Book for All.

    Bought this charming book for my cousin & her 2yr old grandson, as she mentioned she'd like to get him into gardening. One thing, I cannot read the curly tiny writing that's near the kids & veggies. But I probably need new glasses! 👓👀

  • Other uses besides reading.

    I purchased this book to use for added interest in my junk journals. An added page here and there in a nature or garden themed journal is perfect. I saw the idea on a Paula Lemon YouTube video and ordered the book right away. Very pleased. A+++++++
