While the "charm book" is what it purports to be--gardening with the company of two dogs with interesting watercoloring illustrations--it does not have "story-telling" interest, and fails to impart botanical tips or philosophical insights.

Having said that, this is a profound call to action and simple living. After quoting Voltaire and a Crosby Stills & Nash song, this accomplished illustrator/artist, wakes up, then naps in his garden hammock, and dreams: "Plant a lot of plants. That way show more there will always be something new to see. And something that needs to be done." Exactly! show less
Updated many times since. Photography for identification and garden design suggestions
