SEEDS OF HOPE - JANE GOODALL GAIL HUDSON KARTON...

In her wise and elegant new book  Jane Goodall blends her experience in nature with her
enthusiasm for botany to give readers a deeper understanding of the world around us.  Long
before her work with chimpanzees  Goodall's passion for the natural world sprouted in the
backyard of her childhood home in England  where she climbed her beech tree and made elderberry
wine with her grandmother. The garden her family began then  she continues to enjoy today.  
SEEDS OF HOPE takes us from England to Goodall's home-away-from-home in Africa  deep inside the
Gombe forest  where she and the chimpanzees are enchanted by the fig and plum trees they
encounter. She introduces us to botanists around the world  as well as places where hope for
plants can be found  such as The Millennium Seed Bank  where one billion seeds are preserved.
She shows us the secret world of plants with all their mysteries and potential for healing our
bodies as well as Planet Earth.  Looking at the world as an adventurer  scientist  and devotee
of sustainable foods and gardening-and setting forth simple goals we can all take to protect
the plants around us-Jane Goodall delivers an enlightening story of the wonders we can find in
our own backyards.
