That was very sweet. I really am a huge fan. I think your books capture very well how I feel about gardening and what it brings to kids lives. This year I will be stunted with my garden... but we are buying soon, and that means that next year I will be able to do whatever I want... trust me... some sunflower houses, bean teepees, and snacking and sipping gardens are in our future. :) For now we are sticking to buckets and boots. ;)<BR/><BR/>ValVal in the Rose Gardenhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13891260349692305609noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-32434721.post-33264548055840077122009-03-27T18:51:00.000-07:002009-03-27T18:51:00.000-07:00Hi Katie!

It is a great book and has some good Waldorf philosophy as well. <BR/><BR/>Love ValVal in the Rose Gardenhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13891260349692305609noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-32434721.post-8196424703724971622009-03-23T02:46:00.000-07:002009-03-23T02:46:00.000-07:00Val!

I am just finishing a huge new book for grandparents to connect them and their grandchildren to traditions, cooking, the earth, animals, art, etc. We keep working with titles, but haven't hit one we love yet. It took 43 tries before I settled on Roots Shoots Buckets & Boots.<BR/><BR/>Ann and I aren't related except maybe philosophically. I was born Sharon Lovejoy, and Ann married a Lovejoy. Small world.

They are pretty good about that. My last library was better (more books on healthy living, and no fees... great system!) but this one seems to be alright. I have about 40 books checked out at one time... 10 for each me and the kids. School books are another thing that they have... like "What Your Second Grader Should Know" and other books like that to keep me knowing where the kids 'should' be. I love libraries!<BR/><BR/>ValVal in the Rose Gardenhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13891260349692305609noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-32434721.post-9208366280399304882009-03-21T07:59:00.000-07:002009-03-21T07:59:00.000-07:00Do you have an amazing library or do you buy all t...Do you have an amazing library or do you buy all these books? Our library has a sorry collection of anything education or health related....and definitely not anything remotely new. They HAVE nothing on Waldorf and only very few on Montessori- though Paul is just re-enrolled in school so the university's library has a better selectionSarahhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17289736864100513764noreply@blogger.com
