About the Author

What happens when a horticultural therapist/writer meets a pastor/poet who loves plants? Perhaps the first of many miracles. When he showed up at her place with a rare plant as a gift, and she called it by its botanical name, love began to bud. It soon burst into bloom as Hank and Tomi married and started Petals & Pages Press. They are both storytellers, public speakers, and authors of award winning books. Often during their talks, listeners urge them to write down more of the stories they tell, and this book is a result. We hope you will be inspired and encouraged by these everyday miracles, and discover the joy of the plants and people around you.
