Queen Summer


GG loves this book written & illustrated by Walter Crane (Flora's Feast, a Masque of Flowers). Queen Summer has another title, as well, The Journey of the Lily & the Rose. We have lilies (& one Rose) in our family, so that's a good excuse to post these pretty images tonight. We are so very, very busy. Yes. But by week's end, we'll be all caught up (ha!) & ask for your help. For now, have a lovely Wednesday evening/Thursday morning.
