About this listen

After a health crisis led Klickmann to leave the bustling city of London for the tranquility of the countryside, she began crafting a delightful series of sketches for The Girls Own Paper. In 1916, she published the first of several beloved books inspired by these sketches. Her charming cottage, affectionately referred to as Rosemary Cottage in her writings, boasted a picturesque garden and breathtaking views of the River Wye and Tintern Abbey. The Flower-Patch Among the Hills quickly became a hit, prompting a reprint within just two weeks. In the years that followed, Klickmann expanded her collection to include six more Flower Patch books, blending nature writing, personal anecdotes, reflections on faith, and a touch of humor into her engaging narratives. - Summary by Lynne ThompsonCopyright Animals & Nature
