This light-hearted book of rhyming mini-stories takes us on an amusing trek around an imaginary yard and garden through the seasons of the year. Experience the wonders of spring flowers in bloom, summer birds in flight, colorful autumn leaves, and the first snowflakes of winter, along with the challenges of mowing grass, raking leaves, pulling weeds (especially dandelions), and fending off hungry rabbits in the garden! In addition to the title poem, favorite poems include "Morning Sun," "Night on the River," "Captivating Crickets," "Rainbow Road," "The Gift," and more. A fun book for all ages that makes a great library, classroom, and home addition for exploring the joy of gardening and the pleasure of reading poetry aloud.

Industry Reviews

***** Letter to a Dandelion: Earth Verse for Gardeners & Nature Lovers by Jeffry Glover is ... a true wonder of beauty, hope, humor, peace, and simplicity ... an extraordinary read! ... I found myself captivated by ... the heartfelt love it conveys for nature's treasures.... I have just asked my students to write haikus about the environment, so you can only imagine how much I love this poetry! I read this collection "with pleasure at my leisure." I warmly recommend this gem of a book!"

Blending the reverent and the playful ... key lines achieve a sophistication, grace, and insight.... In 'The Gift,' one of the best in his collection, Glover quietly meditates on the universe: ... 'from galaxies to layered rose.'"
