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 family-friendly lyrical verse for exploring the joy of gardening and the pleasure of reading poetry aloud.
***** Letter to a Dandelion: Earth Verse for Gardeners & Nature Lovers by Jeffry Glover is...a true wonder of beauty, hope, humor, peace, and simplicity...an extraordinary read!...I found myself captivated by...the heartfelt love it conveys for nature's treasures…. I will read the poems about each season again, whenever the seasons change. I have just asked my students to write haikus about the environment, so you can only imagine how much I love this poetry! I read this collection "with pleasure at my leisure." I warmly recommend this gem of a book!
