SarahJane is on a distinguished road
Talking Hi! I'm Sarah Jane, author of Hope's Garden

After years of working in one of the most beautiful nurseries in California (Alden Lane Nursery) and equal years working in a bookstore (my other passion), I've combined the two and created Hope's Garden! It's a children's picture book about nurturing flower seeds and creating a beautiful garden, then collecting seeds from the garden and passing them to the next generation. The book comes packaged with a packet of wildflower seeds that attract butterflies! I've loved gardening since I was a kid in my parent's garden, both vegetable and flower. Heck I plucked an orange from their tree just the other day! I wanted to nurture that in children in my immediate circle and beyond. Now my godchildren and nieces and I are nurturing those little sprouts out of the ground and having a great time together! Here's the website if you want to check it out, Tri Valley Children's Publishing. Happy gardening, y'all!

Looks like a great book. I'll have to check it out for my own kids, who love to garden with me. The seeds attached is a really nice touch, especially as a gift.

I looked for it on Amazon and couldn't find it. Is it only available through your publisher?

Currently, yes. As well as indie book stores, toy stores, etc. It's brand new so it's at the "gaining momentum" stage.
