Why read it?

1 author picked The Trellis and the Seed as one of their favorite books. Why do they recommend it?

How lovely to watch the journey of a seed as it grows into blossom-hood. Handled oh so carefully by the ‘nice lady.’ Kindness and patience resonate throughout the pages. This book will surely make the reader want to gently plant some moonflowers in their garden and watch eagerly what happens.

From Joan's list on caregiving and assisted living.
