Happy B-Earth Day to me!
Can’t believe I let this opportunity to mention a great book about one of Canada’s first environmentalists go by yesterday! I’m referring of course to Love Every Leaf: the life of landscape architect Cornelia Hahn Oberlander. I’ll blame it on being too focused on my birthday. 🙂
I’m grateful to Linda Granfield for sending me Tundra’s Earth Day blog post “for [my] scrapbook.” If you don’t know her work, check it out. You’ll see why she thinks in those terms – why scrapbooks have been key to the books she has written, for starters – and why more of us (including me) should keep them.
