Wildflowers

While there is much beauty to behold in nature, surely wildflowers are among the most glorious creations. Sturdy, yet often appearing to be exquisitely fragile, they bring palettes of riotous color to our country sides. This posy bedecked spiral bound volume encourages us to collect wildflowers and comment on where and how we found them. It's a wonderful way to introduce youngsters to the bounty of nature. In addition to pages on which to mount the flowers and make notes, there are lovely full-color illustrations of the different varieties of wildflowers, suggestions as to how to press them, and directions for making flower postcards, stationery, and perfume. - Gail Cooke
