Hollyhock Days is like taking a mini-retreat. 
Sharon Lovejoy makes you want to be the gardener you've always longed to be but didn't know where to start. I could not put the book down and read it in one sitting. She has inspired me to believe I can do gardening! Her ideas and tips are useful and doable. I highly recommend this to parents and teachers to encourage children to connect with nature and gardening.

A lovely guide from green dreams through secret gardens
A companion book to her popular classic "Sunflower Houses," this treasure book also can stand on it's own to give as a gift to children through grandparents...the watercolors range from the whimsical to botanical impressions. I use this as a guidebook when I seek inspiration, good memories, and ideas beyond the practical garden books. This book starts at planning a simple garden for children and adults and closes with a friendly conversation about garden critters. Each section mingles garden memories from children to grandparents, and includes poems, delicate illustrations, lists of plants, and ideas in a gentle and nostalgic way. This book inspires me to plan garden time even after a hard day or a sleepy early morning rising. My family members have always loved beautiful gardens for good, healthy eating, quiet work, or simply to gain pleasure in sweet smells and bright blooms. This book celebrates not only the garden for it's generous gifts to people, but also the family who loves quiet and gentle times
