In this collection of short stories, Emily Carr writes on wildflowers and shrubs and reflects on their qualities and spares no detail. Each vignette and short story engages the reader in each specific flower or plant, describing in depth the qualities and traits of each one with an accompanying image.Â
Illustrated by Carr's childhood drawing teacher Emily Woods, the watercolor images in this book are stunning and evoke artworks of vintage botanical drawings. A wonderful gift for botanical lovers, this book would be a great addition to anyone appreciative of nature and art.Â
