"Rosy skips into Granny's kitchen, and looks around. It's lovely - just as she remembers it. There are flowers everywhere, a jug of irises on the table, honeysuckle on the wallpaper and crocus growing in pots on the windowsill." Thus begins this charming read-aloud story about Rosy's love of flowers told through a child's eyes, accompanied by soft pastel watercolor illustrations. (Miller Library Staff)
Visiting her grandmother in the country, Rosy learns facts and folklore about flowers as she presses flowers, gathers seeds, and makes potpourri.
Recommended for primary school (age 6-12) and up.
