Praise for Dinah Mason Eagers and Anna Platts
‘Wow! Two of my favourite subjects – saving pollinators and flowers – in a book so well written and so unassuming that it surely must appeal to everyone … The book’s language is engaging and memorable, it’s educational without preaching or being forceful. Its humour is subtle and the story is easy to read. The artwork is gorgeous, truly beautiful. They are reminiscent of some of the artwork from Edith Holden’s “The Country Diary Of An Edwardian Woman” – all floaty poppies, cornflowers and greenery. I absolutely loved them’ – Goodreads reviewer
