BEATRIX POTTER'S GARDENING LIFE by Marta McDowell
I recently just finished reading Beatrix Potter's Gardening Life by Marta McDowell. There is a definite part of me that resonates with this amazing woman and her passions. Beatrix's love of nature, preservation, and gardening speak deeply to me. (If only I could write and illustrate like her the package would be complete!) In this beautiful, 285 page book, pictures and illustrations abound as McDowell shows us the places in Beatrix's life that inspired her classic tales for children. They are gorgeous! (Anyone up for a trip to the Lake District in England?) If you are looking for something to inspire you to get your hands in the dirt as we usher in spring, or if you love Beatrix Potter this is a book for you!
