Animal Garden

In this, her first book, Michelle has taken art, animals, and gardening--her three great loves--and woven them together to create a whimsical tapestry for children of all ages to enjoy. The Animal Garden is a poetic and visually enchanting exploration of plants and flowers that are named after animals. The illustrations combine the characteristics of both the plants and the animals in a unique and charming way. The poems are a delightful mixture of fact, humor, and sensitivity, written to be easily understood even by younger children. Is there a pride of dandelions on your lawn? Are there tiger lilies lurking about? The snapdragons aren't nearly as fierce as their name would lead you to believe. The pussy willow purrs, the toadflax doesn't have warts, and the monkey flower might drive you bananas!Angers, Michelle is the author of 'Animal Garden', published 2004 under ISBN 9781413752700 and ISBN 1413752705.
