.happy earth day!.

Happy Earth Day folks!  I needed to share a book with you before I jet out of this place to head off to work.  For the kids in your life, Wildlife Gardening, a DK book written by Martyn Cox, is a must have!  The pages are covered with wonderful photos, illustrations, and tons of information showing how even children can help in bringing life to your backyard.  From planting flowers that will help attract honeybees, to building your own pond, the projects in this book are made simple enough so that even gardening dunces (such as myself) will know how-to and WHY.  So get this book, grab the munchakins, and go out and get your hands dirty!  The kids will love it!

  3. Hi Kat, thank you for recommending my book. It was great fun to put together and my munchkins were great guinea pigs for some of the projects. Do pop over to my blog sometime. Best, Martyn
