Who launches a gardening book in early February? I mean, seriously,
there is snow on the ground, temperatures are plummeting, and we've
barely finished the mince pies.
Oh yes. That's right. I do.
On the plus side, there are many projects in Garden Crafts for Children
that you can do in the comfort of your own kitchen. There is even one
that is downright seasonal - making a sprouting Valentine's Day card.
At this point I shall hand over to my daughter because she is vastly
more competent than me and looks significantly better in front of a
camera.
You can see the demonstration on YouTube (here) - or even on the book's facebook page.
Yes, you read that right. My book has a facebook page. What's more
you can "like" it (which quite frankly seems a little half-hearted - I
feel Mr Zuckerberg should add a bit more passion to the site and I may
well campaign for the introduction of some "adore", "revere" and "would
sell my Granny for this" buttons).
