Outside In My Dressing Gown: Poems For Garden Lovers

A collection of 140 humorous, seasonal poems on gardening by Britain's only gardening poet for those found in the garden in their dressing gown. Often out snipping or clipping first thing in the morning, Liz turns her wicked wit on snails and slugs, triumphs and disasters, nosy neighbours and expensive tree surgeons. Here is everything from the joy of a first crocus to the irritation of losing a much loved trowel. No-one manages to take such delightful snapshots of everyday gardening life quite like Liz Cowley. This is the perfect gift for garden-lovers everywhere; a sparkling voice whose wry, astute humour will find fans far beyond just the poetry corner. Read by a panel of her twenty gardening friends for feedback and meticulously checked for botanical correctness, Liz Cowley captures the joy of every-day gardening in the form of poetry.
