I'm a Winner!!!

Holy cow!!! I won something!!! Melissa from Empress of Dirt was having a Canadian give-away last week, and I was the winner!! I won a book called 'Canadian Gardener's Guide' published by DK Canada and edited by Lorraine Johnson.

 This is what our mail-lady delivered today :)

 This is what I found when I opened the package...

 The book's cover

Title page

I have to say, even though I haven't had time to read it yet, skimming through the book I'm so impressed! Pictures on every page...and when you first open the book, on the inside cover is the Canadian plant hardiness zone map! 

Look at all these pictures!! And every page is like this. Ok, so I'm still at grade school level, I like the picture books. :)


What a treasure, thank you soooo much Melissa and DK Canada!!! I am going to enjoy this book, and refer to it often!

  1. Awesome, congratulations on your nice win Debbie, the book looks very beautiful. It looks like a heavy, very useful reference book, and the plant hardiness zone is a lovely, practical touch, and the layout and photos makes it look like a joy to read and use. I love books with photos too, especially plant/gardening books, because it's a lot about the visual with nature, and photos can speak a lot faster and sometimes more effective than words. DK makes nice books. Congrats again. :-)
